We are more than a theatre company. We are a place where kids get to feel safe, feel seen, and see possible worlds to unlock. New ideas, new universes that get minds opening to possibilities. We invite young people to dream big. And those young people grow up into the adults that help shape the world we live in. Don't we all want to encourage that world to be bright?

There's a really interesting study that came out last year about how if kids haven't seen live theatre before the age of 8, then they never will because it simply won't feel like something that they could be part of, that might be of interest to them. What we do at Carousel isn't just about creating future generations of theatre makers and theatre goers, but helping expand minds into envisioning their own potential.

You know we make and present plays for young people and families. But we do so much more than that, inviting 35,000 young people a year into life-changing experiences. So help us continue to champion diverse stories, create inclusive spaces, and ignite imaginations.

This Carousel is spinning, but only you can make sure it never stops. As we gear up to announce our 50th Anniversary season in a couple months, now is the time to ensure that our future, and thus the future of youth across the Lower Mainland, is bright.
