About Us

 

From the land of extremes…

 

New works of theatre

 

Diverse northern voices

 

Gwaandak Theatre helps develop, premiere and produce plays by award-winning Canadian playwrights. Compelling stories from the North and across Canada…

 

Johnnie’s spirit trapped in the northern lights in Sixty Below,

the young dancer Chivito in an impoverished mining town in Carnaval,

teenaged Jade searching for her identity in Where the River Meets the Sea.

 

We are passionate about northern peoples and cultures, and engaged in the larger world around us.
