Yates Memorial & Sterndale Bennett Theatre

The Yates Memorial Centre and the Sterndale Bennett theatre is located downtown among various amenities and greenspaces. This facility has held a variety of performances in the Lethbridge community. The Yates Memorial Centre is home to Lethbridge's very own New West Theatre, a professional theatre company. The space is also available for rent for other events and performances. The Sterndale Bennett Theatre was a newer addition in 1990. The theatre was named for Ernest and Sterndale Bennett who were known for their local amateur theatre endeavors and later earned national reputations for their work in theatre. The theatre was originally meant as a rehearsal space for Yates performers however the growing demand for more performance spaces led to its renovation into the studio we know and enjoy today. Both spaces are monuments to the art and culture in Lethbridge where performers and viewers alike can enjoy the arts that Lethbridge has to offer.
