St. Jacobs Country Playhouse

Indulge your senses and explore everything St. Jacobs Country and Waterloo Region have to offer.

Located in the heart of the Market District, bordering the city of Waterloo, the St. Jacobs Country Playhouse is a source of tremendous pride for the community.

Operating year-round, this venue features turn-of-the-century masonry and heavy timber character associated with traditional Mennonite architecture. The outdoor courtyard is a tranquil place to gather before the show or during intermission.

When visiting the St. Jacobs Country Playhouse, skip the line at intermission and pre-order your refreshments upon arrival. They will be waiting for you at a pre-determined spot, ready for your enjoyment.

A promotional image for the St. Jacobs 50/50 live in-person raffle. The image features a large red banner with white and yellow text, providing information about the raffle. It states that tickets are available for purchase: “1 ticket for $5” or “3 tickets for $10”. The winner will be drawn at the end of intermission. Two individuals are present in the image, with their faces obscured for privacy. One person is handing over cash to another, who appears to be an organizer or seller of the raffle tickets. The person collecting money is wearing a red sweater with “50/50 DRAW” written on it, indicating their role in the event.

Our popular live in-person 50/50 raffle is back for each performance!  Tickets are available for purchase upon arrival at the theatre.  Winning ticket numbers from each performance can be found at here.

Additionally, we invite you to play along with our monthly online 50/50 raffle, where there’s a chance to win a huge jackpot. These tickets may be purchased at drayton5050.com.
