Everyone welcome! No experience necessary.
Golden Firefly participants connect weekly to work with professional actors and artist instructors. Together in-person they open their imaginations and develop their sense of play through theatre games, acting exercises, improvisations, and stories. Using humour and fun acting games in a safe, lighthearted environment, we awaken our senses and explore the world of storytelling. Fun. Freeing. Stimulating our imaginations. Guaranteed!
Important!

What people say about the Golden Firefly Project
- “Everyone has a story. They just need someone to hear it.” (Participant)
- “Although Firefly is an inclusive, non-judgemental class, it took me a L-O-N-G- time to develop even an ounce of confidence, now I realise, how valuable the Firefly program is, on a number of levels, not least of which is neighbours meeting neighbours for the first time and the camaraderie that comes from that.” (Participant)
- “I started, with a feeling of scared frozen, was definitely more an observer than a doer, later to realise the Firefly Program was thought provoking, entertaining and fun! (Participant)
- “(I learned) that I can overcome memory, reading, breathing difficulties – improved self-confidence.” (Participant)
- “The program was very much in demand and highly successful in decreasing the social isolation of seniors in the community and improving their quality of life.” (Senior Centre Representative)
