👯 About Salty Broad Productions
Salty Broad Productions is a queer, feminist non-profit theatre company based in so called "Victoria, BC". We create genre-bending, camp-fuelled theatrical spectacles that are just as bold as they are heart-led.
All proceeds support our 2025 remount of HAIL SANTA: A Salty Broadmas Holiday Spectacular, returning to the Metro Theatre Dec 18–20. This queer, campy, and hellishly delightful holiday debuted in 2024 — and it’s coming back bigger, badder, and even more blasphemous. Stay tuned.
