== History ==

The Free Theatre was established by a group of students and staff from the University of Canterbury in 1979.〔("University Connection" ) on the Free Theatre website〕 Through experimentation in performance, they aimed to create a new, entertaining and vibrant theatre in Christchurch. The company's Mission Statement reads "to stage old and new rarely staged European plays in original translations, new New Zealand plays, and classical English texts in an unusual and experimental style".〔 The name Free Theatre was chosen in homage to European predecessors Freie Bühne in Germany and Théâtre Libre in France, groups who were striving for productions to be free from social, political and aesthetic conventions.
In 1982, Free Theatre registered as an incorporated society 〔 That same year they built a 100-seat theatre in the Christchurch Arts Centre, Christchurch, as a space for their experimentation. It was originally known as the Free Theatre and later became called the University Theatre. The Free Theatre has served as a launching pad for a number of other groups (Pacific Underground for example) and supported a number of smaller groups to present new work. In 2008, to celebrate the company's contribution to Christchurch, bringing together past and present members, the arts editor of the ''Christchurch Press'' wrote: "For quarter of a century Free Theatre has refined cultural horizons and shaped Christchurch's perceptions of contemporary theatre"
In February 2011, the 2011 Christchurch earthquake destroyed several theatre work spaces used by Free Theatre. Due to damage from the earthquake, both the University Theatre and Nibelheim have been deemed inaccessible, while Old Queens Theatre has been demolished. However the company has continued to produce a number of productions – ''The Earthquake in Chile'', ''Hereafter'' and ''Canterbury Tales''〔http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/christchurch-life/art-and-stage/9334640/Puppets-parade-through-city-streets〕〔http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/opinion/perspective/9410811/Creative-thinkers-engage-with-real-world-problems〕– Free Theatre members have also been involved in post-earthquake initiatives such as Gap Filler, Greening the Rubble and Arts Voice.
In May 2014, Free Theatre in collaboration with Arts Circus signed a two-year lease for The Gym, taking up what will be the first arts-practice tenancy in the new Arts Centre.〔http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/business/the-rebuild/10109184/Theatre-company-moving-into-CBD〕
