About Us

Welcome! IATSE Local 58 is the Toronto Stagehand local of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, Moving Picture Technicians, Artists and Allied Crafts of the United States, its territories and Canada. We are AFL-CIO and CLC members. IATSE Local 58 provides professional technical personnel in all areas of our craft for events in Toronto and the surrounding GTA. Theatre shows, musicals, concerts, opera, ballet, sporting events, conventions and trade show industries all benefit from our skills in stage building, set construction, sound, lighting & video system installations and show production support. If you’ve been to an event in Toronto you’ve already seen us at work! Venues like Roy Thomson Hall, Massey Hall, Exhibition Place, The Royal Alexandra Theatre, The Sony Centre, The Toronto Centre for the Arts, The St. Laurence Centre for the Arts, Scotiabank Arena, and The Young Centre for the Performing Arts are just a few of the places where we are behind the scenes, making the magic happen for Toronto audiences.
