The Repertory Theatre of St.Louis
The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis—better known simply as “The Rep”—has been one of St. Louis’ leading theatre destinations for more than 50 years. The Rep produces nine productions a year on two stages in the Loretto-Hilton Center for the Performing Arts on the Campus of Webster University. Prepare for full theatre immersion that includes classics, Tony Award-winners straight from Broadway and groundbreaking new works.
The Rep will kick off the 2018-2019 season with the Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice masterpiece “Evita” (Sept. 5 – 30), the award-winning “A Doll’s House, Part 2” (Oct. 10 – Nov. 4) and a theatrical rendition of the classic Christmas film “A Christmas Story,” featuring the infamous Ralphie Parker (Nov. 28 - Dec. 23).

The award-winning company also hosts a number of events and programs throughout the year, including “Ignite!,” in which a lineup of acclaimed playwrights are invited to debut new scripts to live audiences. Audience members then provide the playwright with immediate feedback.
By supplementing innovative theater with a robust educational department, The Rep provides learning and entertainment opportunities through the Imaginary Theatre Company and the WiseWrite program. This Midwest theatre company performs on a national stage.
