Why Support Tarragon Theatre?

We are a new country, we are a new form of country and we need to build the root system for our culture … ancient cultures have deep roots to support all the branches of their arts. But we must encourage the roots to grow deep and thick otherwise nothing will stand. This is what the Tarragon is doing. RH Thomson

Tarragon Theatre has been a leader in the development of new Canadian plays for the past 40 years. We continually develop, encourage and produce new works and attract and train artists and technicians to interpret these new works. Our playwrights include some of Canada’s best-loved and most-produced writers.

Ticket sales cover only 37% of our operating costs. By giving to Tarragon you help ensure that we are able to continue to be a playwright’s theatre. You enable Tarragon to continue to offer the programs and resources required to nurture new voices and assist well-known playwrights in bringing their play to the stage. You are a part of the ever evolving cannon of great Canadian theatre.
