The Blue Bridge Repertory Theatre: Website
A great city deserves great theatre! Designed to supplement the great variety of theatre currently offered in Victoria, Blue Bridge Repertory Theatre will showcase masterworks from the classical and modern European and North American theatre traditions in the historic McPherson Theatre.
Inspired by the beauty and simplicity of the Johnson Street Bridge, we believe this innovative structure is the perfect metaphor for a new company that is attempting to offer opportunities to an emerging generation of theatre artists while expanding Victoria’s arts offerings and contributing to a revitalized downtown core.
