Front Row Centre Players

Community theatre company based in Calgary, Alberta, Front Row Centre began presenting musical theatre in 1989 at the Dr. Betty Mitchell Theatre in the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium with a production of Jesus Christ Superstar. In April, 1994, Front Row Centre began performing at the Victor Mitchell Theatre in the Pumphouse Theatre complex with its production of Oliver!. Since 2013, it has used the Beddington Heights Community Arts Centre for its performances.

Providing opportunities for anyone to engage in every part of the theatrical experience, Front Row Centre has an open audition process and chooses shows by an open call for show proposals from interested directors.

Front Row Centre currently produces three major musicals each season, including a popular hit, a family favourite, and something with an adult edge.

Co-Artistic Directors are Jeffrey Diodati and Jeremy Walker.
