Tarragon Theatre, Theatre company and performance venue in Toronto, Canada
Tarragon Theatre is a theatre company and venue located in the Annex neighbourhood of Toronto, housed in a former industrial building. It has two separate stages of different sizes that host productions throughout the season.
The theatre was founded in 1970 and shortly after moved into a former factory building near Casa Loma that had to be fully renovated. Over the following decades it became one of the most recognized homes for new Canadian plays.
The Tarragon Theatre is known as a place where Canadian playwrights hear their words spoken on stage for the first time. The programming each season reflects this commitment, with most shows being original works by local writers.
The venue is accessible for visitors with different mobility needs and offers several ways to get tickets. Looking at the programme in advance helps you pick a show that suits your taste.
Since opening, the theatre has staged over 170 new works, which is a remarkable number for a venue of its size. During the pandemic it also produced content for radio broadcasts, finding a way to reach audiences who could not attend in person.
