Enjoy Live Theatre for the Love of it!
Regina Little Theatre is a non-profit community theatre company that engages primarily amateur and some professional participants in all aspects of production and administration. All RLT participants are volunteers, who work at a wide variety of jobs to ensure each production is a success. Some of these jobs include set design, stage management, sound design, acting, program design, and hair and makeup, to name a few.
In a typical season (September thru June) RLT produces five full-length main stage plays as well as two sets of one-act plays for public performance. RLT gives each production a small budget to cover the cost of production materials, supplies, and services, and gives access to RLT's production resources including our collections of costumes, props, furniture, and set pieces.
Each main stage play production is performed on four consecutive evenings, beginning on a Wednesday. Typically, an RLT show will average 250-500 audience members per night. During intermission and prior to the show, audience members may visit a concession stand run by RLT to stock up on drinks and snacks. On Fridays, a Greenroom Party reception is held after the show and features food and a cash bar. The Greenroom Party is an opportunity for the audience to mingle with the cast and crew of the show.
RLT likes to pick a variety of shows for each season. We have staged comedies, dramas, romances, tragedies - a bit of everything! We select plays written by well-known authors, as well as up-and-coming authors. A few of our productions are avant-garde, while others are tried and true tales that audiences throughout the years have loved.
The RLT also hosts one or two sets of one-act plays during each season. Each set features two nights (Friday & Saturday) of short, one-act plays by a variety of authors. The one-act plays provide an opportunity for new recruits to become involved with a smaller production. Many newcomers who participate in the one-act plays eventually move on to take part in RLT main stage productions.
Other RLT activities include workshops, play writing contests, fundraising performances, and participating in theatre festivals.
