About Us
Who We Are
Theatre by the Bay is a professional, not-for-profit theatre company based in Barrie, Ontario.
We produce world-class theatre right here in Barrie, blending nationally recognized talent from Stratford, Shaw, Broadway, and Mirvish with exceptional rising artists from Central Ontario. Our shows are entertaining, inclusive, and professionally staged—crafted to resonate with a wide range of audiences.
Our Vision
Beyond our artistic mission, Theatre by the Bay offers something beautifully simple: An unforgettable night out.
Have dinner at one of Barrie’s fine downtown restaurants. Enjoy a glass of wine. Then sit back and take in a show you’ll be talking about long after the final bow. Whether you’re a long-time theatregoer or new to the experience, we promise a performance that connects, delights, and inspires.
Our impact goes deeper, too:
• We mentor the next generation of Canadian theatre-makers
• We offer hands-on training in producing, marketing, development, and outreach
• We contribute to Barrie’s cultural and economic vitality with artist-first, community-centred programming
To forge partnerships with local cultural organizations so that, together, we can build on combined strengths and common goals to create initiatives that will solidify Barrie’s reputation as a cultural hub and demonstrate the social importance and richness of professional theatre.
