Prairie Theatre Exchange
Prairie Theatre Exchange, one of Winnipeg’s oldest and largest professional theatre companies, presents a season of five mainstage shows and one family show in an intimate and unique horseshoe-shaped theatre – only 10 rows of seats!
The experience of a PTE play is immediate, powerful and different from any other theatre you’ve seen. Committed to local artists and Canadian plays, PTE has gained a national reputation for its role in the growth of Canadian theatre, and for being an incredibly dynamic and exciting place in Winnipeg to see theatre.

THE 2012-2013 SEASON
You'll stand on the brink of change with a quirky, off-kilter family (The Brink by Ellen Peterson, October 10-28, 2012), share a bittersweet love story (The Swearing Jar by Kate Hewlett, November 14-December 2, 2012), make a hilarious descent into the “dish pit” of an upscale restaurant (The Dishwashers, by Morris Panych, January 23-February 10, 2013), explore perspectives on the Afghanistan war (This is War by Hannah Moskovitch, February 20-March 10, 20123) and get caught up in a musical film-noir mystery (Gunmetal Blues by Scott Wentworth, Craig Bohlmer & Marion Adler, April 4-23, 2013).
These are your stories – about you, your neighbours, your community and your world. They’re stories full of laughter, tears, intensity and hope, written by Canadian playwrights and performed by the theatre that lives in the heart of downtown.
