The Thousand Islands Playhouse is a summer theatre company located in Gananoque, Ontario, Canada.[1]
It was founded in 1981 by Greg Wanless and a group of local actors and graduates from Queen's University including Timm Hughes, Joan Gardiner, Mo Bock, and Kathryn Mackay.[2][3] Artistic Director Wanless and Assistant Artistic Director Mackay retired at the end of the 2012 season. The current Artistic Director is Brett Christopher, and the Associate Artistic Director is Sophia Fabiilli.
Thousand Islands Playhouse operates two theatres, the former Gananoque Canoe Club building as the 348-seat Springer Theatre in which musicals and larger plays are performed, and a black-box theatre, the 140-seat Firehall Theatre in which smaller, experimental plays are produced.[4]
The Thousand Islands Playhouse's programming also includes a Playwrights’ Unit with workshop productions for the public, a touring show performed by their Young Company, and the Studio ‘S’ Classical Music Series. The company has also recently renovated a new premier production facility.
