We have an exciting season ahead!
Shakespeare's R&J
Four college students. One night. The greatest love story ever told.
An adaptation by Joe Calarco
Presented by The Shakespeare Company and Sage Theatre
with the support of Calgary Young People’s Theatre
Feb. 20 to Feb 28, 2026
West Village Theatre
Tickets: $30 with affordable options.
Four young students, in a repressive college environment, decide to vary their very governed lives. After school, one breaks out a copy of William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, and they all take turns reading the play aloud. The Bard’s words and the story itself are thrilling to the boys, and they become swept away, enmeshed in the emotion so much so that they break school rules in order to continue their readings. The rigidity of their lives begins to parallel the lives of the characters in the play: roles in the family, roles in society, and the roles played by men and women soon seem to make sense.

In a world of AI, it can be dangerous to be real.
Sage Theatre in collaboration with Vertical City Performance presents an immersive theatre puzzle.
Mar. 18 to Mar. 22, 2026
Contemporary Calgary
Four figures wake up in an isolated room, with no idea how they got there. Each has a clue. A single, fragmented memory, just beyond their grasp. As they cautiously begin to learn from one another, they soon realize the question is not who they are, but what they are. For only one of them is human. And in an AI world, being human can be dangerous.
Reset is an immersive theatre experience, an intimate puzzle where the audience is invited to solve a high-stakes mystery that changes every night. Watch closely. Even the actors don’t know the answer when each performance begins…
