COFFEEHOUSE THEATRE SOCIETY

After years of singing, dancing, checking mics, and building sets with the Equinox Theatre at South Delta Secondary, a group of graduating students knew one thing for sure: they were not done working together. Instead of going their separate ways after graduating, this group of students decided to take everything they had learned in school and start their own theatre company. Together, they created the Coffeehouse Theatre Society, a theatre group made up entirely of young people acting, directing, producing, and creating together. Coffeehouse Theatre Society staged their first show The Importance of Being Earnest to a sold-out crowd in July 2018. Officially becoming a non-profit in January 2019, Coffeehouse Theatre Society works to provide opportunities for young people in Delta and the surrounding areas to participate in theatre in an unprecedented, accessible, and distinctly youthful environment.
