IN AUGUST 2012 DAVID MIRVISH SAW A

wonderful production of an Irish play called

Terminus at the annual SummerWorks

Theatre Festival. The production was

playing for only a few performances in a

venue that held no more than 30 people. He

thought it was a shame that more people

could not have a chance to see it, so he did

something quite unusual and extraordinary.

He found a way to make the stage of

the Royal Alexandra Theatre a black-box

theatre seating 200 people with the playing

area located in front of the empty historic

auditorium of 1,500 seats.

As well, for many years David was

searching for a way to showcase the wealth

and breadth of Toronto's theatre community

and to bring its work to a larger audience.

He also wanted to bring acclaimed and

important international shows that share

a commitment to artistic excellence, and

an exploration of language, action and

ideas that are challenging, innovative and

provocative. These shows often would not be

appropriate to play 1,500 or 2,000 seats; but

at 700 seats, the Panasonic Theatre is an ideal

size for this kind of work.

This is how the Off-Mirvish season began.

The inaugural season in 2012-13 included

Terminus from Outside the March company,

Anthony Rapp in Without You, Studio 180’s

production of the Pulitzer Prize-winning

Clybourne Park and Mary Walsh in Dancing

With Rage.

Subsequent seasons included the Tony

Award-winning comedy God of Carnage (from

Studio 180), The Two Worlds of Charlie F., George

F. Walker’s Dead Metaphor, Buyer & Cellar, Rick

Miller’s Boom, the Tony Award-winning Vanya

& Sonia & Masha & Spike, Seminar starring

Tom McCamus, BigMouth and the Pulitzer

Prize-winning drama Disgraced.

This season’s lineup began with Fight

Night, continues with My Night With Reg (from

Studio 180) and ends with Why Not Theatre’s

award-winning production of Butcher.

SINCE OUR FIRST DAYS, STUDIO 180 THEATRE

has been introducing Toronto audiences

to socially relevant theatre that provokes

public discourse and promotes community

engagement. We produce plays — often

Canadian or North American premieres

of renowned international works — that

tackle difficult issues and generate powerful

audience responses.

Studio 180 began life in March of 2002,

when its five co-founders came together to

present the Canadian premiere of The Laramie

Project (2003). In 2009, we first partnered

with Mirvish Productions to present Stuff

Happens. We helped launch OFF-MIRVISH

in 2012/13 with our production of Clybourne

Park, and returned in 2013/14 with God of

Carnage. We’re very pleased to be back again

this season.

Studio 180 now produces up to two

large-scale shows per season, and runs

Studio 180 IN CLASS, an innovative

education program that takes our work into

high school classrooms, and Studio 180 IN

DEVELOPMENT, giving theatre creators a

helping hand as they develop new work.
