The Twilight Company is Toronto’s newest and most exciting small-scale independent theatre company. Our mission is to bring the creative visions of emerging and mid-career theatre artists to life.

We’re introducing bold new Canadian works to Toronto stages for the very first time. We aim to be the launchpad that propels these stories beyond their first production, toward national recognition and future development.

We believe new work can be ambitious, financially viable, and artist-driven - and that the people who create it deserve to be paid while they are actively doing the work, not weeks after the show closes.

Core Values

• Artist-Led Innovation – We believe in Canada’s emerging voices and support the production of new Canadian theatre that breaks form, redefines narrative, and challenges expectations.

• Equity and Access – Fair pay, representation, and ethical working conditions are non-negotiable.

• Collaboration and Community – We foster a supportive space where artists at all stages of their careers can connect, experiment, and thrive.

• Risk and Discovery – We champion the unfamiliar. If you’ve never heard of it before, we want to stage it.

Vision

To become a nationally recognized launchpad for groundbreaking Canadian theatre. In the long term, we envision:

• A larger seasonal series of original works

• Partnerships with mid-sized and major companies to develop and produce new work

• Sustainable funding models that allow artists to be properly compensated

• A cultural home where theatre-makers feel empowered to dream big
