Biographical history
From 1963-67, theatre courses were offered at the University of Victoria by the Department of English.

Regular theatre productions have been produced by Players Club, 1963-68, Campus Players, 1964-67, and Phoenix Theatre since 1966.

In 1981, the new Phoenix Theatre building was opened.
