About Theatre Passe Muraille

You've got a guy for tickets to Theatre Passe Muraille, a cornerstone of Toronto’s theatre scene. With two distinct spaces — the flexible Mainspace Theatre and the intimate Backspace — TPM offers a rich mix of Canadian works, world premieres, and bold staging. Whether you’re catching a mainstage show in the Mainspace or a tight, immersive performance in the Backspace, we’ve got you covered with easy, no-fuss ticket access and insider tips for getting there.

Located at 16 Ryerson Ave in the heart of Toronto’s Queen West culture corridor, TPM blends historic theatre charm with modern renovations, making it a great stop for a night of compelling theatre and nearby dining. Let us help you secure your seats and plan a smooth outing.

Parking in the area is limited on-street, with convenient paid lots on Richmond Street West (below Loblaws) and at Wolseley Ave & Augusta Ave. TPM is easily accessible by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC); take the Queen Street car from Osgoode or Bathurst stations to reach the theatre quickly. After the show, explore nearby hotels such as The Drake Hotel, The Gladstone Hotel, or the InterContinental Toronto Centre for a comfortable stay. We recommend booking through our trusted partners for reliable hotel rates and dining options that pair perfectly with a theatre night.

Venue details: Theatre Passe Muraille operates two stages — Mainspace (flexible, multi-purpose) and Backspace (intimate studio). The theatre has hosted numerous Canadian premieres and notable off-site and on-site events. Recent renovations to the TPM lobby and spaces have refreshed the venue while preserving its historic charm.
