About Driftwood Theatre

Founded by Jeremy Smith in 1995, Driftwood Theatre is Ontario’s leading outdoor summer touring theatre company, on the road with The Bard’s Bus Tour visiting Ontario communities.

Since 1995, the company has performed for over 100,000 people in venues across the province. City parks, campus fields, schools, heritage museums, castles, private estates and even a parking lot have, at one time or another, been home to a Driftwood performance.

Through the Beyond the Bard Play Development program, Driftwood Theatre has supported the development of over 100 short and full-length plays by emerging Canadian playwrights since 2004.

With a vision of good people sharing great stories, Driftwood’s mission is to tell stories wherever and whenever we can in ways which are uncompromisingly live and surprisingly unexpected; to develop and produce plays rooted in mythic and epic storytelling, while remaining responsive to the world we live in right now; to immerse ourselves in the act of sharing stories, where communities are both audiences to and participants in the creative process; and to welcome all people in the creation, performance, and exploration of the work.

Driftwood has been performing in the Quinte and Prince Edward County region since 2000 and is now very proud to call The County ‘home.’
