DONATE TODAY

Support Theatre Proudly MADE IN CANADA

At a time when global shifts—and threats about becoming the 51st state—make us question our identity, it’s more important than ever to tell our own stories. At Studio 180 Theatre, we believe in the power of Canadian voices. That’s why we’re doubling down on bold, homegrown storytelling in our 2025/26 season.

From the world premiere of Kanika Ambrose’s The Christmas Market, a b current Performing Arts production in association with Studio 180 Theatre and Crow’s Theatre, to exciting new works in our IN DEVELOPMENT program, we’re amplifying diverse Canadian perspectives that reflect who we are, where we come from, and where we’re headed.

But we can’t bring these stories to life without your help.

We aim to raise $7,500 by June 30

Donate today and support our “MADE IN CANADA” campaign.

And here’s the good news: your gift will go twice as far.

A group of longtime supporters has pledged $4,000 in matching funds, meaning every dollar you donate will be doubled. And that’s not all – when we reach our $7,500 goal, it will unlock an additional $2,500 from two longtime donors – bringing our total to $10,000! We need you to help us get there. Every dollar helps!

Want to make a lasting difference? Become a monthly donor and champion Canadian theatre.

Join us – Invest in bold, new Canadian voices. 

Ticket sales only cover 12% of our operating expenses, so we count on every dollar from individuals like you to fund our programming.
