A Live Laboratory,br>Built in 1981, The Reeve Theatre is only one of many of the University of Calgary's venues for theatre arts. The theatre acts as the Department of Drama's personal facility for research and experiments with the dramatic arts. Students and faculty use the theatre as a laboratory, pushing the boundaries of all of theatre's components, including lighting, sound and staging. The stage is used for practise and a handful of performances, but is not available for public booking.

Exceptional fourth-year students may be chosen for an internship with a local professional theatre organization.
