Theatre has been an integral part of Hamazkayin in Toronto; theatrical performances were held throughout the year by the Georges Sarkissian Theatre Group and many directors have contributed to its success, including Souren Chekijian†, Jirair Injeyan†, Arsho Boyadjian Solakian†, Movses Ashekian and Levon Khangaltian. Classical and contemporary works were staged in Toronto and neighbouring cities for many years, thereby making theatre a regular part of the Toronto Armenian cultural life for decades.
The Two Masks theatre committee was established in 2012, to help revive the spirit of theatre and encourage young, aspiring actors to join. It consists of vibrant youth, who are bonded through their love for the theatre. It also hosts and presents various plays and musical groups in the Hamazkayin Theatre Hall.
Following appearances in Toronto and Montreal, Two Masks now seeks a talented director who can lead the George Sarkissian Theatre Group into the future.
