History
Theatre Terra Nova was founded in 1988 by Brian Morton as an alternative theatre production. The theatre troupe provided offering such as Billy Bishop Goes to War, Cold Comfort, and The Kingpin. In 1990, after securing a loan from the Hamilton City Council, Theatre Terra Nova moved into the Playhouse Theatre. However, due to financial difficulties, the troupe folded in 1992. The Playhouse Theatre is now currently an independent cinema theatre.
