Thank you for coming to Madgen 2025
Stay tuned for news about our 2026 festival, coming August 20-22
MADGEN”: Theatre of the Beat's Emerging Producers Festival!
MADGEN, 2025 ran from August 21st-23rd in Toronto’s Danforth community at Theatre of the Beat (2174 Danforth Ave.). Each night offered two of our three works in development.
2025’s cohort spotlighted three heart-filled plays that tackled social justice themes, pushed boundaries, and let us pause and reflect on what it is we hold close to our hearts.
