Since 1995 The Harold Awards have come to represent the independent and hard-working spirit of Toronto’s vibrant theatre community – a kind of rabble-rousing alternative to the Dora Awards. To be Harolded is an honour of the highest subversive order.

This year the Harolds are on Monday May 13 at The Monarch Tavern. Hosted by Richard Lee & Lindy Zucker. Tickets only $10 at the door.  Follow The Harolds for updates on Facebook and Twitter.

Never miss The Harolds!
