EQUITY SHOWCASE THEATRE

Equity Showcase Theatre produces and presents theatrical performances that centre the stories and voices of Black, Indigenous, and racialized artists in Toronto. The organization creates opportunities for these communities to work as writers, directors, performers, designers, and producers across multiple productions each year. By building stages for artists who have been historically excluded from mainstream theatre, Equity Showcase Theatre works to shift whose stories get told and who gets to tell them. The company also offers workshops, mentorship programs, and professional development opportunities to strengthen the artistic practice of emerging and established creators from equity-seeking backgrounds. Through its commitment to artistic excellence and community building, the theatre challenges the status quo of Toronto's cultural landscape.
