Centrepointe Theatre

Such a wonderful place to bring the family. It’s far for us but the prices are reasonable and the seating and theatre size is perfect for both adults and children. The staff is very professional and the variety of performances are great. Great venue.

I think Nepean is very lucky to have a theatre like this in the neighbourhood! Attached to what used to be Nepean City Hall and the Centrepointe Library, it’s also a beautiful place to take a walk outside and check out the fountain. There’s lots of parking (and it’s free!), but the theatre can get very busy and books various events on one night, so be sure to get there at least half an hour prior to your event to find parking. On the night we attended there was also a large dance recital going on so the parking lot was packed.
As mentioned, Noah K and I were here with some friends to see Jayme White, a local mentalist/​illusionist preform. The theatre was downstairs and sat about 200 people, which I thought was a great size, because it feels intimate no matter where you are sitting.
The one thing I was not particularly impressed with was the staff I came into contact with. The two women we encountered (ushers?), were holding programs, but both told us we could pick up programs downstairs despite having a ton of them. They also weren’t very friendly and were a bit off-​putting. That being said, it wouldn’t detract me from going here again as I hardly had to interact with them. I think this would be a great place to see a musical act as it would be super intimate. I’ll absolutely be checking out their schedule more often!

What a great little theatre this is. I just finished watching Jaymes White perform his magic/​mentalist act. The theatre itself had a few stages. I went to the one that was on the lower level. It has a seating capacity of about 200ish. The event was practically sold out but no matter where you sat, you could see the stage perfectly. It’s a benefit of having a small theatre; in comparison to a larger theatre such as the NAC. The prices for drinks and food was definitely over priced; much like you would see if you went to the movies.

Located in what was Nepean city-​hall Centerpointe is a corner stone of the Ottawa theatre scene. You name it they will host it. Some good… some not so much. Quality community theatre and B and C role international entertainment
