HALIFAX THEATRE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
Nova Scotia / Mi'kma'ki
​Halifax Theatre for Young People is HRM’s only full-time professional theatre for young audiences. Since 2009 we have aspired to create meaningful, engaging theatre experiences that stimulate the imaginations, hearts and minds of young people and their families. Touring theatres and schools throughout Nova Scotia, we encourage critical thinking through the development of educational materials that explore each production’s complex and challenging themes. As we work with playwrights to develop relevant and stimulating plays for young audiences we endeavour to ignite the unlimited capacity of youth for empathy and an understanding of diverse human experience.
