Lunchbox Theatre, a beloved fixture in Calgary's performing arts scene, is set to relocate to CSpace Marda Loop for its upcoming 52nd season. The move, announced by artistic director Patti Neice and general manager Bronwyn Steinberg, marks a significant transition for the company as it seeks a new home in the vibrant Marda Loop neighborhood.
New Venue, Same Mission
The theatre, known for its intimate productions and commitment to Canadian works, will now operate out of CSpace Marda Loop, a community-focused arts hub. According to Neice, the new space offers modern facilities and a welcoming environment that aligns with Lunchbox Theatre's mission to make theatre accessible to all.
Community Support
The relocation has been met with enthusiasm from local patrons and artists alike. Steinberg emphasized that the move would allow the theatre to expand its programming and reach new audiences. "CSpace Marda Loop provides us with the opportunity to grow while maintaining the close connection with our community that has always defined Lunchbox Theatre," she said.
Looking Ahead
The 52nd season will feature a diverse lineup of plays, continuing the theatre's tradition of showcasing emerging and established Canadian playwrights. Specific productions and dates will be announced in the coming months. The company is also exploring partnerships with local organizations to enhance its educational outreach programs.
Lunchbox Theatre's move to CSpace Marda Loop is scheduled to be completed before the start of the new season this fall. Tickets and membership information will be available through the theatre's website.
