MT Space Young Company 

The Newcomer Youth Theatre Projects feeds directly into MT Space Young Company, a more in-depth theatre training program that allows students to further develop their skills as theatre artists while receiving mentorship from local cultural community leaders.   

Young Company Intensive – Summer 2022

Organized by MT Space and supported by the Kitchener-Waterloo Community Foundation. 

Through a series of in-person workshops and guest mentors, we provide Indigenous, Black, and Racialized youth with the chance to learn new skills in the multi-disciplinary arts, build community, practice language skills, and develop confidence in response to change.

More about Newcomer Youth Theatre Project

Over the past thirteen years, the MT Space (in partnership with YMCA of Three Rivers, Immigrant Services) has worked with hundreds of immigrant and refugee youth from high schools in Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge, to gain confidence and build community through the Newcomer Youth Theatre Project.  This program feeds naturally into MT Space Young Company.

Acknowledge the Land & People

With gratitude and appreciation, MT Space acknowledges that we live, learn, and benefit on the traditional territory of
the Chonnonton, Anishinaabeg (Ojibway, Mississauga, Chippewa, and Algonquin), and Haudenosaunee Confederacy
(Six Nations including the Mohawk, Cayuga, Onondaga, Seneca, Oneida, and Tuscarora Nations).

This includes disputed territory known colonially as the Haldimand Tract,
which originally included six miles on each side of the Grand River, from the river’s source to Lake Erie.

We acknowledge our responsibilities to share land and resources peacefully
under the ‘Dish with One Spoon’ and ’Two Row’ covenants.

We honour that these Nations of people have been living on, working on, and caring for
this place from time immemorial and continue to do so today.
