This is top-notch theatre in a forestry town that, surprisingly, has a thriving arts community. Every show I've been to has blown me away. Ted Price, the artistic director, is a creative genius. Not only does he have a knack for casting, but his set direction has seen the creation of the most beautiful and transporting backdrops. It bears no resemblance to community theatre. This is high-quality professional theatre, like you could expect in any big city. The shows I've seen here include A.R. Gurney's Sylvia, Ethan Claymore by Norm Foster and Ernest Thompson's On Golden Pond. I've laughed, I've cried, and every time I've been amazed that such a creative collaboration is possible in a place like PG. There is a lot of theatre going on in this town (you can only quad so much). But this is by far the best, in my opinion. But if you want more, check out the Prince George Symphony's line-up. It's excellent. The Playhouse also produces some great community theatre shows.
