Our Theatres

The Shaw Festival presents plays in four distinctive theatres: the Festival Theatre – The Shaw’s flagship theatre, the historic Court House Theatre where The Shaw first began performing, the Royal George Theatre, modeled after an Edwardian opera house and the Studio Theatre, our new 200-seat theatre. All theatres are within a short walking distance of each other.

Court House Theatre

26 Queen Street

A national historic site dating from the 1840s, the Court House is where the Shaw Festival began in 1962. The building’s upper level combines an intimate 327-seat auditorium
with a thrust stage.
