Since 1994, Theatre North has been a key not-for-profit, supporting northern Tasmanian live performance.

One of the North’s largest arts sector employers, Theatre North manages the treasured Princess Theatre and Earl Arts Centre through a lease arrangement with the City of Launceston, and programs an annual season of live performance and public programming, supported by Arts Tasmania.

Theatre North plays a crucial role in ensuring the development and success of the performing arts in the North of the state.

We:
• connect Northern Tasmanians with high-calibre live performance from interstate and intrastate
• support and develop the local theatre sector and help realise the community’s creative ambitions
• provide professional venue management services, through our stewardship of significant cultural infrastructure

Theatre North ensures the Princess Theatre delivers a year-in, year-out contribution to the domestic night-time economy.
