Presentation House Theatre has been a premier provider of theatrical programming on the North Shore for thirty years, offering an experience that is intimate, friendly, and entertaining. As the most established theatre venue on the North Shore, Presentation House Theatre is an inviting space that presents a dynamic and diverse mix of performances and facilitates the development of the performing arts throughout the community. Presentation House Theatre is ideally situated on the North Shore, only 4 blocks from the Lonsdale Quay and nestled in the heart of the Lower Lonsdale community.

Presentation House Theatre launched the Third Street Theatre Series in 2005, featuring a vibrant season of plays and showcasing some of Canada’s brightest theatrical talents.

Presentation House Theatre also operates as a rental venue. Users of the theatre are diverse; from emerging producers putting on their own work to plays performed in many different languages; from small professional theatre companies presenting challenging work to high school productions and community players; from one night music events to large-scale musicals and concerts. Presentation House is a intimate space and every effort is made to keep the rental of the theatre affordable.

Presentation House Arts Centre, encompassing the theatre, the Presentation House Gallery, and the North Vancouver Museum, has been a space for the convergence of the arts, culture, and heritage of the North Shore community for twenty-nine years. As a designated heritage building, Presentation House is a recognized name on the North Shore as a distinguished space for creative expression and a catalyst for cultural development in the community. The combination of these three spaces for cultural creation and renewal elevates Presentation House to one of the most exciting, innovative, and rich venues for entertainment and culture on the North Shore. Over the years, the theatre space has provided residents and emerging talent the unique opportunity to celebrate live performances, presentations, artist exhibitions, and musical performances.

The Fourth Wall Gallery is a community art gallery located in the theatre lobby of Presentation House Theatre which displays work by emerging artists. The programming focus is on North Shore artists, artists that have not had shows previously, and group or student shows.
