Volcano is a Toronto-based live performance creation company. It works adventurously, collaboratively and with an eye to making art that transcends borders, boundaries and orthodoxies. A push for equity, racial justice and human well-being is critically important to Volcano. It is specifically mandated to be inclusive, and to diversify its sector through mentoring, training and representation. In its nearly twenty-eight-year history it has explored a wide-range of ethical terrains using opera, theatre and cross-disciplinary performance, and toured productions to three continents. It has received over seventy awards or nominations at local, national and international levels. Its shows include Scott Joplin’s Treemonisha, Century Song, White Rabbit Red Rabbit, Goodness and many others.

Volcano’s goal is to make the world a more resilient, just and caring place through imagination, action, respect for one another and through the art it supports.
