Nach dem Abschluss des Studiums 1944 ermöglichte ihr das Cleveland Playhouse eine Reise durch die USA, bei der sie professionelle Theater und Laientheater kennenlernte. Nach ihrer Rückkehr nach Calgary wurde sie zunächst Beraterin, später Leiterin der von drei ihrer ehemaligen Schüler gegründeten Theatergruppe Workshop 14, mit der sie zwischen 1949 und 1959 mehrere Preise bei den Dominion Drama Festivals gewann. 1958 verlieh ihr die University of Alberta einen Ehrendoktortitel. 1962 wurde im Allied Arts Centre das Betty Mitchell Theatre gegründet, aus dem später Calgarys erstes professionelles Theater hervorging. Ein zweites Theater, das Mitchells Namen trug, wurde 1982 im Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium gegründet. Seit 1998 vergeben die professionellen Bühnen von Calgary jährlich die Betty Mitchell Awards. (de)

She was director of drama at Western Canada High School from 1936 to 1961. She was also a director at the Studio Theatre of the University of Alberta. From 1955 to 1960, she was a judge at the Dominion Drama Festival. After Professor Barclay Leathem attended a special presentation of Our Town at Western Canada High School, he recommended Mitchell for a Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship. She went on to earn an MA in theatre at the State University of Iowa. A National Research Fellowship from the Cleveland Play House allowed her to visit and study theatre groups in the United States. She died in Calgary at the age of 80. The Betty Mitchell Awards or Bettys were established in 1998 to recognize the best in Calgary theatre. A theatre at the Allied Arts Centre in Calgary and the Betty Mitchell Theatre at the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium were also named in her honour. (en)
