Gateway Theatre is a welcoming, inclusive, culturally diverse professional theatre for Metro Vancouver audiences and communities, producing fresh, vital and relevant work that connects us to each other and to the world around us. Gateway Theatre runs the Gateway Academy, established in 1991 to offer year-round acting, musical theatre and performance training classes for youth six to 18 years old; and offers professional venue rental, management and staffing services.

Mentorship and Community Outreach

As a large theatre company, Gateway Theatre plays an important role in the mentoring of selected young companies, providing them with artistic support and mentorship, rehearsal space, performance space and administrative assistance. 

Opportunities are provided for youth to experience the magic of live theatre through sponsored performances and outreach programs designed to introduce them to career opportunities in the arts. We support other charities through ticket donations.

Gateway Theatre is a not-for-profit society, and issues tax receipts for charitable donations.
