Tarragon Theatre, Theatre company and performance venue in Toronto, Canada
Tarragon Theatre is a performance venue in Toronto housed in a converted industrial building with two separate stages. The main stage accommodates approximately 205 people, while the smaller space holds around 113 people.
The venue was founded in 1970 and moved into a former factory building near Casa Loma that required extensive renovation work. Since its opening, it has grown into a significant space for presenting new Canadian theatrical works.
This venue has built its identity around staging new Canadian plays and giving playwrights their initial public hearings on its stages. You can see this focus reflected in what appears on the posters and in the programming choices throughout each season.
The venue provides accessibility features for visitors with different needs and offers several ticket purchase options. Checking the program ahead of time helps you find a show that matches your interests.
The theatre has brought more than 170 new works to performance, shaping the careers of many Canadian playwrights in the process. During the pandemic, it also created digital content that was distributed through radio broadcasts, expanding its reach beyond the stage.
