Civic Programming

Soulpepper's civic programming is an open invitation into a hub of culture and creativity in the Distillery District.

Toronto Star Live

Bringing journalism to the stage.

In partnership with the Toronto Star, this new monthly series transforms the theatre into a public forum for the city, a place where journalists, guest speakers, and audiences come together to examine the ideas shaping Toronto right now.

Once a month, Star journalists will take audiences behind the headlines and into live conversation about the issues, questions, and possibilities defining life in the city. It’s a space for debate, discovery, and the shared work of imagining what Toronto can become.

HOT DOCS AT SOULPEPPER

Today’s most powerful documentaries side by side with the plays you love.

A new monthly series in partnership with Hot Docs, bringing visionary documentary filmmaking from around the world to Toronto’s East End.

PUBLIC TUESDAYS

Find your company.

We’ve got your Tuesday plans covered. Every week, Soulpepper turns its lobby into a live social space: part hangout, part happening, part public gathering. Expect games, films, conversation, music, and the kind of encounters that remind you why we’re lucky to call Toronto home. Bring a friend. Talk to a stranger. Put your phone away. And take part in a new weekly ritual that makes the city feel human.

THE TORONTO FRINGE FESTIVAL AT SOULPEPPER

One of Toronto’s most beloved cultural traditions.

This summer, Soulpepper becomes home to one of Toronto’s most beloved cultural traditions. With dozens of shows and free outdoor programming, the Fringe brings an extraordinary range of artists and audiences together in a city-wide celebration of daring, independent performance.
