Highland Arts Theatre, or “The HAT” as it’s affectionately called, is the newly renovated St. Andrew’s Church in downtown Sydney. When the church was decommissioned in 2013, local musician and businessman Kevin Colford stepped up to instigate a transformation of the beloved historical building into a state of the art centre for arts and culture. The venue officially re-opened in June 2014 with an original musical comedy: “The Wakowski Brothers – A Cape Breton Vaudeville”.

While the venue is available for rent and has hosted many of Cape Breton’s finest in the fields of music, dance, and entertainment, it is our intention to create a reliable theatrical presence downtown, producing quality productions with a special emphasis on Cape Breton songs and stories.

The HAT Box Office is located at the side door of the Theatre at 40 Bentinck St., open Monday to Friday, 11AM to 4PM. As well, tickets are available at the front Box Office for the hour before showtime.
