Theatrix is undergoing some exciting changes and we are proud to invite you to follow along as we work to deliver an unprecedented experience for costume shoppers and theatre professionals worldwide! Be sure to come back soon and see Theatrix evolve. For now, just imagine transformation! Now for more about us, so far: Before you invest time and money searching for that second to none costume you've been dreaming of, look no further than Toronto's own, internationally acclaimed Theatrix Costume House. With over 45 years of experience, our dynamic production team will ensure you and your entire group are dressed for any occasion. Founded in 1965 by Mr. Warren Hughes, Theatrix started out as a little shop called Catherwoods on Yonge Street within the hippie district. Over time, the company expanded its theatrical focus and moved its shop to the theatre district on King Street West. Theatrix was purchased by the DeVita family in the 1990's and began to tap into new markets including costume rentals for special events, weddings and corporate promotions. In 2008, Theatrix moved to its current location on Geary Avenue and was purchased by Gina Anki and Mark Manthei this September. A veteran to the world of theatre, Ms. Anki brings over 30 years of theatrical experience to the company. She is a graduate of Theatre Arts at Sir Wilfred Laurier University and the Institute of Drama Therapy in London, England. She is the founder of both The Children's Arts Theatre School and CATS Mainstage Theatre Company. Ms. Anki is passionate about maintaining the company's reputation for excellence, creativity and innovation within the field of costume design and rentals. Ms. Anki has also expanded the already credible talent base at Theatrix to include experienced and talented Costume Designers, Show Coordinators, Wig Masters and a Tailor. While Theatrix has built a solid reputation within the theatre community, its vision is to further develop and better serve the needs of the emerging film and television industries, locally and internationally. Theatrix has the capability and the facilities to increase production and is already well on its way to exceeding its goals. This is a positive change and frankly, it's coming at a time when the industry could really use the boost. Theatrix Costume House offers one of the largest collections of theatrical, novelty and Halloween costume selections in North America. more... See more text

    An amazing team to work with. Gina sponsored the Toronto Events Network and it was a hit with my attendees. They are very easy to work with. Love their custom design department. Great for corporate events and productions. You can even rent their costumes at an affordable price =) You will be surrounded by thousands of premium costumes when you visit their Parkdale location. Definitely THE source for Toronto Costumes!

    These certainly aren’t your average thrift store costumes. This iconic costume shop caters to the theatre, film and television industry with its finely crafted pieces. Regular folks are also welcome to rent over-the-top outfits or partake in the costumes, wigs, makeup and accessories available in the retail shop. If you have your heart set on a Marie Antoinette ensemble for Halloween, make sure you reserve ahead of time.
