It’s The Foster Festival’s 10th Anniversary Season!

In reference to The Foster Festival’s 2025 – 10th Anniversary Season, Artistic Director Emily Oriold says, “I can’t believe we are already celebrating ten years of laughter at The Foster Festival! It feels like just yesterday I was reaching out to Norm with the idea to found a theatre festival to celebrate him as Canada’s most prolific playwright. Since then, we have produced 26 of Norm’s comedies, 15 of them being world premieres, and ten development workshops.

“This past decade has been filled with unforgettable memories together. From the incredible performances to the amazing community we’ve built, it has been an honour and a joy to share my passion for Canadian theatre with all of you. And now we are deepening our commitment to Canadian work through our Fostered Playwrights Festival. In another ten years, I know we will all look back and be even more amazed by our accomplishments.

“Here’s to many more years of creativity, connection, and, of course, laughter! On behalf of our staff, artists, and board of directors, thank you for being a part of this incredible journey with us.”
