Ground Zero Productions
Ground Zero Productions (GZP) is a Canadian nonprofit theatre organization registered under the business number 118948322RR0001. Founded in 1988 by Don Bouzek in Toronto, the company has a focus on producing professional theatre that addresses socially relevant and often controversial subject matter, emphasizing historically accurate retellings of real stories with impact on society[3][5].
Originally based in Toronto, Ground Zero Productions produced plays for Labour Movements and community organizations committed to social justice. Over time, the organization relocated to Alberta, where Don Bouzek continues to serve as Artistic Director[3][5]. The company is recognized for its dedication to creating theatre that supports marginalized voices and promotes social awareness.
As a registered charity, Ground Zero Productions offers powerful fundraising tools for other charities, allowing those organizations to concentrate more fully on their missions rather than administrative tasks[1][4]. The organization operates with a mandate to foster professional theatre within the Edmonton area, supported by the Canada Council for the Arts and other funding bodies[2].
The archival collection of Ground Zero Productions, held by the University of Guelph Library, includes administrative files and manuscripts dating from 1982 to 1997, documenting the company's formative years and theatrical projects[5].
Overall, Ground Zero Productions is noted for its contribution to Canadian theatre through socially committed productions and sustained support for community and labour-based artistic expression.
