The Assembly is an interactive theatre-meets-board-game experience about sustainability and democracy,

designed for grades 6-8, where theatre, strategy, and social activism meet!

Nominated for five Dora Mavor Moore awards in 2025, we are bringing The Assembly back to Toronto schools

​

During every performance, students form The Assembly, where they are invited to work together to balance their city’s current needs with the needs of future generations. This show is a fun, cooperative 75-minute challenge that gives students and audience members the chance to collaborate, deepen their empathy, and understand their impact on future generations.
