Zuppa Theatre

Founded in 1998, Zuppa is a Halifax-based, artist-led ensemble creating original works that experiment with form and provoke the consideration of new perspectives and ideas.

Zuppa has been touring since 2004 and has an excellent reputation locally, nationally and internationally. Nationally we have been presented at: Groundswell (Toronto), Tremors (Vancouver), FTA (Montreal), In the Soil (St. Catharines), The Shadbolt Centre (Burnaby) and The Magnetic North Theatre Festival (Ottawa, Halifax and Whitehorse). Internationally we have performed in the UK at Chapter Arts (Cardiff), Mayfest (Bristol), and Derelict (Preston, Lancaster, Manchester) and in the U.S. (Charlestown Working Theatre (Boston), Cleveland Playhouse Square (Cleveland), NaCl (The Catskills). Locally: Sydney (Boardmore), Antigonish (Bauer), Saint John (BMO Studio), Moncton (Capitol), Chester Playhouse, Liverpool (Astor), Annapolis Royal (King’s), Fredericton (STU Black Box) and The Ross Creek Centre for the Arts.

We are supported by Halifax Culture and Events, Arts Nova Scotia, The Nova Scotia Department of Communities, Culture, Tourism and Heritage, and the Canada Council for the Arts.
