Linden House was founded in Ottawa, Canada in 2007 by amateur actor Janet Uren, with the support of veteran actor and director George Stonyk.
It all started with a stage. As an alumna and through the generosity of Elmwood School, Janet Uren found herself with rare access to a wonderful stage and auditorium. Here, she realized she would be able to produce some of the great comic works that interested her as an actor. Working with George Stonyk and drawing on his long experience of community theatre, Linden House set out to produce an annual comedy. Audiences have responded, and the company is now entering its fifth year.
