The Vancouver Coast & Mountains region plays host to a vibrant theatre and performing arts scene, reflecting its cultural mix. As the region's urban centre, Vancouver offers audiences a vast number of performance choices. In summer months, the city's Bard on the Beach is much-loved by thousands of Shakespeare fans, as are Stanley Park's outdoor shows 'Theature Under the Stars'. The Artsclub Theatre Company hosts contemporary theatre and comedy on Granville Island , while Broadway musicals are seen at venues citywide. Other classic choices include: ballet, symphony, opera, jazz and blues clubs as well as stand-up comedy revues.
Drama enthusiasts will also appreciate the Sunshine Coast , where several groups present theatrical productions. The Raven's Cry Theatre in Sechelt showcases various cultural performances throughout the year from dancers and pianists to Aboriginal storytellers.
