About This Cause

YPT is the oldest professional theatre company in Toronto and is a national producer and presenter of theatre for young audiences – the first and largest of its kind in Canada. Over the past 53 years, YPT has staged many of the most important plays that form the canon of work for youth in our country. YPT also continues to develop new work and create partnerships with theatre companies across the country and around the world. But that’s not all. The enriched learning experiences YPT’s Education & Participation Department provide young people with help to develop their whole being. Through our workshops in community shelters and agencies, educational initiatives in Toronto classrooms, Drama School programs in four locations throughout the City, and training and apprenticeship opportunities, we place learning at the centre of everything we do. At Young People’s Theatre, we strive for a positive and lasting impact on the emotional, social and intellectual development of young people, giving them the chance to grow into the unique and wonderful people they were born to be.
