Program Notes

"Three months ago this space was a filthy, empty factory for old neon signs. The earthy space appealed to us and it was converted into a flexible, experimental theatre.

"THE FACTORY is a theatre for Canadian playwrights (i.e. playwrights living and working in the country regardless of their immigration status). We will be presenting original works only.

"There are also workshops and we are developing a resident acting ensemble. New talents, actors, technical people, especially playwrights, are always welcome."
