We are so excited to announce the start of our Under the Sky Porchside Series! Join Theatre Collingwood as we take advantage of some great Collingwood porches and bring to you wonderful talent that you can enjoy safely “porchside”. Our first porchside event will in the backyard of David & Anita Hearn located at 288 Beech St., Collingwood. On their porch will be the amazing Chris Tsujiuchi and (ART) Asian Riffing Trio! Separately, they are 3 prominent powers. Together, they unite to form 1 superpower! Colin Asuncion (he was also a star on The Great Canadian Baking Show), Kevin Wong and Chris Tsujiuchi. Tickets are $30 each. BYO (bring your own) lawn chair, blanket, picnic, etc. Showtime is 6pm. Tickets are limited so that we can keep people socially distanced (but of course you can sit with your “bubble mates”). The boys will entertain from the porch. We would like to thank The Musical Stage Company in Toronto, who have had great success with this idea in Toronto and have given us their approval to try it in Collingwood! Funds raised will greatly support Theatre Collingwood during this unprecedented time. Check out the video from the Asian Riffing Trio Toronto porch concerts, and stay tuned for our announcement of more Under The Sky Porchside events! Call 705-445-2200 for tickets.

How Can I Help?
Dear Theatre Lovers,
We don’t have to tell you what a difficult time this is for live theatre around the world. You get it. Theatre companies, artists, and musicians are all struggling with no income and no “end” date to the situation. The ARTS as a whole is what feeds our souls. The good news is that we know from history that artists come back after disasters, stronger and more creative then ever. At Theatre Collingwood we are celebrating our 36th Anniversary this year and we look forward to when we can entertain you once again! In the mean time, if you are looking for a way to help us, here are a few suggestions:
1) Please do not cancel your tickets but rather allow us to bank them for you, to be used at a later date and time of your choice.
2) Consider making a donation or, if you have not already done so, become a Theatre Collingwood Member. Any amount/level will be greatly appreciated.
3) If you do not want to bank your tickets you can transfer the amount into a totally tax receiptable donation.
4) Buy Gift Certificates that may be used for any future shows. This could be for yourself or for someone else as a way to say “thank-you” or “I am thinking of you”
Theatre Collingwood is monitoring the on-going Covid-19 situation. Our Box Office is currently closed to walk-in traffic. If you have any questions please email us at info@theatrecollingwood.ca or call 705-445-2200 and leave a message. Information regarding the rescheduling or cancellation of shows will be posted ASAP. Thank you for your understanding and support.
