Founded in 1949 by Bert Williams, the Little Theatre Group is the oldest continuously running English-language theatre in Central or South America.

Currently, the group puts on a minimum of four productions a year, offering the English-speaking community, audience and actors alike, a choice of modern, classical, serious and farcical plays. Continuing in the tradition of its founders, the LTG today strives to contribute to the entire Costa Rican community. The group regularly donates to charity, sponsors school drama festivals, trains new directors, and takes productions on the road to the more remote areas of the country. Check out our Guardian Angel programme under Membership to see how you can help financially.

Auditions for LTG productions are announced in the membership newsletter and the Tico Times, and new members are always welcome on both sides of the footlights. Auditions are open to all. You are welcome to attend the group’s monthly social meetings, Open Houses, which are held at the Shakespeare Bar downstairs at the Teatro Laurence Olivier on the first Monday of the month from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. (except January and July).
