Ottawa Little Theatre's 2012 Summer Theatre Series
Ottawa Little Theatre presents two shows this summer. Enjoy a classic Agatha Christie Mystery and a lively, funny musical by Canada's favorite playwright, Norm Foster. One of Agatha Christie's lesser known mysteries, Black Coffee will surprise and delight Christie fans. The story concerns physicist Sir Claude Amory, who has come up with a formula for an atom bomb (the play was written in 1930!). A terrible thing happens to Sir Claude and Hercule Poirot is called in to solve the case.

Ottawa Little Theatre's 100th Season
Ottawa Little Theatre's 100th Season is not only a celebration of 100 years of Ottawa theatre, but a celebration of theatre itself. Each play in the 100th Season, a 10 play season, represents a decade of OLT's history and the very best of that decade. Playwrights such as Agatha Christie, Arthur Miller, Neil Simon and Noel Coward are all featured in a season that promises to be a fitting tribute to Canada's longest running theatre. |

Adult Acting and Movement Workshops
Ottawa Little Theatre offers a wide variety of workshops throughout the year. From acting and movement to technical and design workshops, OLT has it all.
Acting with Masks
The study of Neutral Mask challenges the actor to use their entire body in expressing themselves on stage. It is a vital tool for performers wanting to gain a greater control over their body in movement, develop their imagination and bring a dynamic quality to their presence on stage. Through a series of improvisational and technical exercises the actor confronts their physical habits in order to move past the ‘daily’ body and enter the theatrical realm. |
