Lisa Li, Executive Director
Congratulations everyone, we made it to Spring 2025! I’ve now been in my role as the Executive Director of Tarragon and back in my hometown of Toronto for nine months. I’ve REALLY missed this city: the pace, the tenacity, the ambition, the rigour when it comes to theatre-making, the diversity of art forms, and even the TTC.
A lot has happened in these nine months, and there is lots more to come. In this moment of political chaos, I get the privilege of working not only in the arts but also serving the Canadian artistic community. Tarragon has always prided ourselves on being the premiere house of new Canadian works and that Canadian badge of honour feels exceptionally meaningful right now. On April 3, Tarragon announced our 25.26 season – Tarragon’s 54th season, and the first season designed by Mike and myself. In this upcoming year, you’ll see Tarragon’s work reach coast-to-coast, truly living up to our national mandate of being Canada’s Neighbourhood Theatre. We are excited by the partners we’ll be working with along the way, the exceptionally talented artists who will be showcased, and of course, the sharing of Canadian stories.
