A Stage For Everyone: Local Theatre Builds Community and Inspires Youth

Theater in the Park is the flagship program of Sum Theater, bringing free, live, family-friendly theater to parks all over Saskatoon and beyond, attracting thousands of
people. The program is unique; instead of inviting the audience to the theatre, the theatre comes to them, transforming local parks into stages. It s a community building initiative that breaks down barriers and invites everyone to participate.

“When you re watching a show with a bunch of other people, it reminds you that you re not alone,” says Ed, reflecting on the benefits of live theatre. The stories that we re telling all have universal themes that really speak to what makes us human and that unites us all in that moment.”
