rentals

The Metro Studio is available to you.

The only dedicated performance space of its kind in downtown Victoria, our venue offers a flexible range of options for all kinds of events. Live theatre and dance are our specialties, but we also rent for corporate gatherings, screenings, classes, dances, readings, film shoots, concerts and parties.

Located on the busy corner of Quadra Street and Johnson Street, near every bus route, the studio is a spacious "black box" theatre with a 30'w by 27'd stage and wingspace on both sides. Our venue is well-equipped with new theatrical lighting and sound systems, a clearcom system, a grand piano, a digital projector and other toys.  The Metro features 130-150 new, upholstered seats on tiered audience risers in a proscenium configuration. Grid 19'6" above stage level. Excellent acoustics. Fully wheelchair accessible.


Metro too big? Meet the Intrepid Studio.

Intrepid Theatre has a new home:  The Intrepid Studio.  This space will seat 40-50  and provide a great venue for small shows, concerts, rehersals and classes.  The studio is still being outfitted but is ready for rehearsals and classes. Our bright and spacious lobby is immediatley available for classes, meetings and readings, maybe even some yoga.   For updates on the studio, rental info or to donate all that old theatrical equipment in your basement, call Megan.
