Caught In The Act: Theatre Series on 118 Ave
Cast members from The Gift, a play currently running as part of the Caught In The Act Theatre Series
Arts on the Ave and the Avenue Initiative have teamed up to create and curate Caught in the Act: the theatre series on 118 Ave. The series takes place in the developing performance matrix that extends between the Old Cycle Building and the Avenue Theatre on 118 Ave, straddling 92/93 streets.
Caught in the Act runs from April to September, and includes Shakespeare, original plays and festival productions. Featured events include the Edmonton debut of a new work that will travel to the Edinburgh Fringe later in the summer, a new comedy by award winning writer Collin Doyle, a festival of Irish Theatre, and, for the second year in a row, a Fringe BYOV over the river.
Conceived by Christy Morin of Arts on the Ave and Judy Allan of the Avenue Initiative to provide a variety of live entertainment options in a neighborhood that is invigorating its rich cultural potential. The Old Cycle Building is under long term renovations to become the cultural hub of Edmonton’s north side.
