PLAYSMELTER FESTIVAL

PlaySmelter on the Move!
 
PlaySmelter, Northern Ontario’s only festival dedicated to new works of contemporary Canadian Theatre, is on the move! Starting in 2025 we are hitting the Northern Roads to pitch our playwrights’ tents throughout Northern Ontario.
 
First up is Timmins where we’re sharing the stage with The Tamarack  Festival – a Festival that we have been proud to mentor. 

EVENTS

Playsmelter’s Lisa O’Connell and the Tamarack Festival’s Jessie Bergeron were recently interviewed by CBC Radio’s Up North program.
