Summerworks Performance Festival

founded in 1991, summerworks is canada’s largest curated performance festival of theatre, music, dance and live art; widely recognized as one of the most vital platforms for launching new work—locally, nationally and internationally. summerworks is the place where artists are free to explore new territory and take artistic risks. rather than getting larger, we strive to get better. we are interested in continuously reimaging and innovating the possibilities of performance- how it is created, presented and experienced. we are committed to programming that represents a diversity of cultures, perspectives and levels of experience. we look to introduce artists and audiences from diverse communities to each other and be inspired by our similarities and differences.
