The 2017 SummerWorks Performance Festival runs August 3-13 and our staff is on hand to cover pretty much everything. Check back at this page throughout the festival for all of our reviews and be sure to follow us on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter accounts for all the latest updates.

The MyTheatre Artists Advertising Discount Program

If you scored an A- or B+, we’ll knock 25% off the ad price. Discounts also apply to Fringe Grades, all 2016 MyTheatre Award winners (50% off), and nominees (25% off) in Toronto, London or New York and $5+ Patreon donors have a reusable 10% off they can gift to ANY PRODUCER THEY WANT for the duration of the festival. Discounts go as high as 95%; email us for details.
