Past Shows
CAT live theatre showcases stories of comedy, mystery, thrills and romance!
Our productions also highlight innovative and unorthodox theatre. Directors can venture into fresh territory and try something new with scripts that are dramatic, experimental or challenging.
As a “black box,” Studio Theatre is ideally suited to many styles of theatre, giving directors and designers a highly adaptable place to create their vision.
