Our Organization
Fredericton Playhouse Inc. is a non-profit, volunteer-directed organization which manages and develops a live performance venue in downtown Fredericton. The Playhouse is a venue for local, national, and international artists and companies, and offers programs for the community. We operate an integrated partnership with the City of Fredericton; although we function at arm's length from the municipality, strong financial, operational, and governance links to the City exist.
