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.
