“One helluva fun, pop-up theatre experience” ~ Joshua Chong, The Toronto Star

Enjoy your commute with a fun, free theatrical experience on your way to the park!

Theatre in Transit is an immersive performance on wheels that picks up Guild Festival Theatre patrons at local transit hubs and takes them to Guild Park & Gardens. On the way, the bus becomes a stage with performances inspired by Brontë: The World Without and Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey. Shuttles run return trips on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from July 17 to August 23.

How it Works

Once you select your performance date, book a seat on the Theatre in Transit shuttle - make sure they’re for the same date! In the event that you are not booked for that day’s mainstage performance, your Theatre in Transit ticket will be cancelled to allow other patrons to make use of that slot.

The week of your visit, you'll receive an email with the pickup location, bus details, and everything else you need to turn the commute into a performance.

Theatre in Transit is free for Guild Festival Theatre ticket holders.

There are several Theatre In Transit pickup locations. Please see the ticket booking page for pickup times at each location on your performance date.

East Scarborough Storefront (4040 Lawrence Ave E)

Guildwood GO Station (Westlake Road Parking Lot)

Kennedy Subway Station

Boys & Girls Club East Scarborough (100 Galloway Rd)

Following the performance, the shuttle will return passengers to their original pickup location.
