“Celebrate the collectively-run Howland Company”
– The Globe and Mail
With the launch of The Howland Company‘s thrilling 2025.26 theatre season, we are very excited to share our “New Heights” campaign, and we would love for you to be a part of it.
The Howland Company is built on the belief that live theatre and storytelling has the power to challenge, inspire, and connect a community. We are an artist-led and art-driven independent theatre company in Toronto, committed to creating urgent, thrilling, and thought-provoking work. None of this is possible without hard work, innovation, investment, and without people like you.
This giving season, our goal is to raise $25,000 to support both our biggest and boldest season yet and the operations that make it all happen behind the scenes, and we’re almost there! Help us reach our goal.
