Funding
A major fundraiser for the company is the Vancouver Playhouse International Wine Festival, which was first produced as a single-winery event in 1979.
In 2011, following in-camera deliberations by the Vancouver City Council, Vancouver provided the company with a complex bailout of approximately $1 million. The information regarding the bailout was the result of a leak from Vancouver city hall, following which the city posted the relevant documents on-line. In response to negative reaction, artistic director Max Reimer defended the city's action on the Playhouse's website.
