Welcome To Ottawa Little Theatre!
Vision: A little theatre in everyone’s life.
Mission: To create the best in popular, entertaining community theatre, with opportunities for volunteer participation and learning.
The Little Theatre has been a vital part of the Ottawa arts community since 1913, making it the longest continuously producing community theatre in Canada, and one of the oldest in North America. OLT has produced well over 1,000 plays in its history. All directors, designers, actors, and stage and front of house crew are volunteers.
OLT has a long and illustrious history, and many of the actors who have stood on the OLT stage have gone on to successful careers in film and television, and continue to do so!
With a 386-seat auditorium, and a fully licensed lobby, approximately 40,000 tickets are sold to OLT’s plays each season.
As a charitable not-for-profit organization, OLT relies on its subscribers, ticket buyers and individual donors to provide over 90% of its income.
