Shakespeare in the Ruff

about

Now in our eleventh season, Shakespeare in the Ruff is a professional outdoor theatre company serving the diverse neighbourhoods of Toronto’s East End. Our work lies at the intersection of Outdoor Theatre, Education, and Community Building.

  • We create original Canadian adaptations of Shakespeare’s plays pushing the boundaries of form and content for outdoor theatre.
  • We offer integrated education programs for youth that provide hands-on, one-on-one mentorship with our professional artists.
  • We bring together local residents, emerging artists, businesses, and non-profit organizations through our activities to build a stronger community.

We offer all of our programming free or Pay-What-You-Can to ensure accessibility for everyone.
