Who are Peak Theatre Players?

Since our first production more than 25 years ago, Peak Theatre Players has evolved into one of the more successful community theatre groups in the Province of Alberta.

A fortunate combination of talented and tasteful individuals has fostered our growth through cabarets, comedies, dramas, One Act Festivals and original works. As we have grown, happily, so too has our audience.

We are amateurs to the core: we produce theatre because we love doing it.

While we do love our theatre, we have never been the most organized organization. When we start a season, we rarely know how we will end it, always feeling that the best play will be discovered when we need it. Stay tuned!
