Theatre and Film with A Spark

At Empath Theatre CIC, we create bold, high-quality theatre and film. Storytelling is an act of empathy, inviting audiences to understand, react to, and engage with the characters and their experiences. Empath puts that relationship centre stage in its original works, adaptations, and its workshops.

A theater stage set up with various props, including scaffolding, chains, and lighting equipment. The backdrop mimics a gritty urban environment. Several people are seated in the audience, and a few are standing, suggesting either a break or preparation before a performance begins.
