The 4th Line Theatre is a Canadian theatre company located near the small town of Millbrook, Ontario in the township of Cavan Monaghan.

History

The 4th Line Theatre was founded by Robert Winslow in 1992, after his mother's passing left him with the 150-acre farm property. Robert launched the theatre with his original work The Cavan Blazers,[1] and has directed and written many of the plays.

In 2014, Winslow’s long-time collaborator Kim Blackwell took on the role of Managing Artistic Director as Winslow transitioned out of his position as Artistic Director.
