The Cellar Door Project is a site-specific theatre company dedicated to re-animating historical spaces through performance. Be it theatre, film, or art installations, we are in the business of reflecting a community’s past and present back to them by its telling their stories in the spaces they originally happened in. To us, “the past” means anything from the early beginnings of a city to yesterday’s breakfast.

​The Cellar Door Project creates historical pieces based on characters whose stories unfold in the same space in which the audience sits. So far, these spaces have a park, a cemetery, 2 old jails, a record store, a Kingston fort, the National Arts Centre Rehearsal Hall, a dive bar, and the Diefenbunker.
