Queer Pride is radical love and defiant self expression. It’s a time to celebrate everything that we are and all that we can be, while reimagining the spaces we create for all of our queer communities to come together. It is in this spirit that we offer you Queer Pride 2023 – a festival of queer theatre, comedy, art, music, and parties that showcases our community’s unstoppable spirit.

***********************************

Buddies In Bad Times Theatre is on the traditional lands of the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation, the Haudenosaunee, the Anishnaabe and the Wendat. We acknowledge them and any other Nations who care for the land (acknowledged and unacknowledged, recorded and unrecorded) as the past, present and future caretakers of this land, traditional territory named Tkaronto, “Where The Trees Meet The Water”; “The Gathering Place”. We do not support colonial forces that undermine, distort or erase the vital role of Indigenous people in our world.

Accessibility Note: We're proud to say that part of the reason we were so excited to host our events at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre is that their venue is fully accessible, including their gorgeous gender-neutral washrooms!

Buddies In Bad Times Theatre's Accessibility Statement, from their website:

Physical Accessibility: Our entrance is accessed by a ramp for all patrons. Our washrooms are located on the lower level, which can be reached by attendant-operated elevator*. Some stalls are equipped with bars and provide extra space, though patrons with larger mobility devices may find it a tight fit.

Washrooms: Our washroom facilities are not designated by gender and all patrons are free to use the washroom of their choosing. Both washrooms are equipped with private stalls (including larger stalls that accommodate mobility devices) and communal sinks, one washroom is fitted with urinals that can be used by people of any height.

Service Animals: Accredited service animals are always welcome on our premises. Guide dogs or other service animals, including service animals in training, are allowed to accompany patrons who require them.

* Flamingo Market and Buddies have made sure to have staff on-site so the elevator is always personed, to reduce potential barriers to accessibility
