We are incredibly pleased to share the news that The Slaight Family Foundation has committed $15M to rejuvenate 22 Canadian theatre companies, including Soulpepper. This transformational sectoral gift is the first of its kind for the theatre sector and will provide direct support to theatres and artists recovering from pandemic closures.
This initiative will enable theatres to take the artistic risk needed to bring back audiences and reignite creative processes, funding artists fees, production development and marketing costs over the next two years.
Read the article in The Globe and Mail for the full details of the annoucement.
We are grateful for the generous gift from The Slaight Family Foundation
