2008–2009 Season

In the upcoming season, Tarragon productions and plays are performing all across Canada, journeying from Halifax to Vancouver. This is truly a recognition of and credit to the work that Tarragon does, and could only be possible through the tremendous local support we receive from our subscribers and our Toronto theatre community, and the creativity of Tarragon artists- the playwrights, directors, designers and actors who are always seeking new ideas, rigourous in their work and presenting the best of their imaginations.

Our upcoming season is the largest of my tenure at Tarragon, and includes our 3 Hits Package of remounts that celebrate some of the best of our recent productions. Join us for these, and embark on fresh theatrical adventures in the seven premieres that will take to our stages in the coming year.
