Youth Nights

Youth Nights are free opportunities to see professional theatre and go-behind- the-scenes! Attend a pre-show artistic workshop, have some pizza and receive a complimentary ticket to the show.

All workshops start at 6pm and pre-registration is recommended. Email Aoife Lucey at youth@canadianstage.com to register! The only catch is you have to be 21 or under and show up to the Bluma at 6pm sharp, as latecomers are not admitted.

Youth Nights are always on the first Tuesday of the first week of the run of any of our Bluma shows.

Young Artist Programs

These programs for youth under 21 run from January to May, and culminate in performances at the Berkeley Street Theatre as part of the Festival of Ideas and Creation.

The Application Deadline for these programs has now passed.

Contact Aoife Lucey at youth@canadianstage.com or at 416.367.8243 x.266 for more information.
