    According to the owners:
    Proudly housed in a heritage historical building – a converted bakery where you can still see the original loading doors at the front, and horse stable windows at the back – TPM is one of Canada’s most senior, established and influential alternative theatre companies. TPM was founded in 1968 by director and playwright Jim Garrard with the radical intention to create distinctly Canadian Theatre. TPM gained its national reputation in the 1970s under the artistic directorship of Paul Thompson, who guided the company towards a distinctive style of collective creation with plays such as The Farm Show and I Love You, Baby Blue.

    In the 1980s, the company was led by Clarke Rogers and Brian Richmond, gifted dramaturges and directors who shifted the artistic vision in favour of playwrights: Judith Thompson, Linda Griffiths, Thomson Highway and Michel Marc Bouchard are a few examples of playwrights produced at TPM in this era.
