Becoming A Sponsor
Theatre by the Bay is a not for profit incorporated company which means that sponsorship is crucial to the success of our productions. We need to raise $360,000 annually to ensure that our community can affordably access professional live theatre.
Our Young Company and Main Company shows bring in over 10,000 people to our summer theatre festival.
In keeping with our vision, we ensure that over 6,000 students each year experience our Shakespeare to the Classroom Program. For 2012, this touring show will focus on Shakespeare's “A Midsummer Night's Dream” proving that Shakespeare can be both educational and entertaining. We also provide teachers with a curriculum based education package.
Theatre by the Bay promotes tourism in the region through their strong affiliations with Tourism Barrie, The City of Barrie and Downtown Barrie.

The Merry Wives of Windsor
Queen Elizabeth so enjoyed the character of the vainglorious knight Sir John Falstaff, that she commissioned Shakespeare to write a play allowing him to pursue his love of the fairer sex. This bawdy, comic romp has the unique distinction of being the only one of the Bard’s plays to deal with the contemporary Elizabethan middle class life and times for which he wrote.
