Sharyn Ayliffe

Executive Director

Sharyn, now serving as Executive Director since 2024, has been with Theatre Orangeville since 2011. She spent the first nine years as Programs Manager and stepped into the role of General Manager in March of 2020. A life-long resident of Orangeville, she is committed to the advancement of Theatre Orangeville as a leader of equity, acceptance, and inclusion in our community. She brings her exceptional passion for the transformative power of the performing arts to her values-based approach in leadership and strives to foster this passion in staff, volunteers, community members and partners.

Sharyn is equally passionate about visual arts (being both an illustrator and photographer) and horticulture, and when not in her office can usually be found among the plants in her greenhouse.

She is very grateful for her outrageously supportive family, and is delighted to be living her very own happily ever after.
