The Courtyard Playhouse is more than just a theatre. It’s more than just a training centre. The Playhouse is an idea born out of a passion for improv, for creative expression and a desire to create a space where a community of theatre-lovers and practitioners can thrive. It is a home for the performing arts.
Founded by Kemsley Dickinson and Tiffany Schultz in 2013, the Playhouse has grown and developed into a multi-faceted organisation boasting a Theatre Academy, a Corporate Academy, weekly improv nights, National Theatre Live, children’s theatre and more… whilst still remaining a community at it’s heart.
Nestled in Al Quoz, the creative heart of Dubai, among galleries and cafe’s, our facilities include state of the art equipment, a 60 seat auditorium, a 30 seat studio theatre and a rehearsal room.
The Courtyard Playhouse Performing Arts Training Center is the first and only dedicated improv’ theatre and KHDA licensed training centre in the UAE. It is home to Theatresports Middle East, affiliated with the International Theatresports Institute.
We pride ourselves on our authenticity, warmth and friendliness. Our talented team of instructors, performers, volunteers and everyone behind the scenes who make the magic happen, are ready to welcome YOU to the biggest hearted small theatre in the world!
