Project Undertow is a theatre arts collective committed to providing opportunities for artistic expression in all forms. Project Undertow grew out of The D.A.’s Office, an actors' laboratory, active in Toronto since 2005.

Our mandate:
To create vivid visual and sensory experiences that are innovative and political while still rooted in a strong sense of story. To create essential, participatory, theatrical experiences that excite, stimulate and enthral.

“Sarah Ruhl’s absurd urban comedy about how a melancholy woman’s transformation into a happy person affects those around her needs sensitive direction, and Rosa Laborde (is there anything this multitalented theatre artist can’t do?) and an impressive cast expertly bring out the laughs while understanding the pain beneath the humour.” - Glenn Sumi, NOW Magazine
