It's not about what you do. It's about who you do it with.
Buttered Toast Productions was founded with the intention of creating space for freedom of expression. The most important thing we do is bring passionate individuals together and support them with a safe environment to play. The vastness of the human experience is what excites us to constantly explore, take risks, create, and document.
We aim to make high quality production accessible and fun! Our sets are collaborative spaces where you can find lots of laughter, great food, and honest people.
We believe the best outcomes for our cast & crew members create the best outcomes for all of our partners. Help us help you find the joy in building something everyone involved in the creation process is proud of.
We are committed to running a cooperative and sustainable set.
