Our audience is comprised of arts lovers, who tend to be highly engaged in their community. They support not only Langham Court Theatre, but also other community groups and performing arts organizations. Coming from all over Greater Victoria, our audience members are loyal, with many attending regularly for more than 5 seasons. They are strong advocates of our theatre and its members.
Our largest audience segment is aged 45 plus, skewed female. Typical to their generation, they are brand loyal and recognize the contributions that companies make to the community, thus having a tendency to favour those they see as providing community support.
