A Musical for Young Audiences celebrating Queer & Trans identity! This workshop presentation will feature fun, energetic, and uplifting musical bops to dance and sing along to.
Set in a peach orchard, PEACHES tells the story of Greg and Prince, a peach farmer and his apprentice, who grow a play and decide to put it on. Can a sharp 2-hander set in an elevator in a hospital, staged on a peach farm help Greg and Prince save all that’s gone bad between them?
An exploration, an installation, a performance that asks about our relationship with the weather in all its banality and terror and comfort. Created and Performed by: Coral Maloney and Colleen Arcturus MacIsaac.
Casey & Diana (A handshake that changed the world)
In 1991, at the height of the AIDS crisis, the residents of Casey House - Toronto's first free-standing AIDS Hospice - receive word that the Princess of Wales is coming to visit. This potent and moving drama by Nick Green, vividly captures a moment in time when a rebel Princess, alongside fearless caregivers and advocates, reshaped the course of a pandemic—and how those stricken by the virus found hard-won dignity, community and love in the face of astonishing hardship.
From the safety of their solitary tower of coziness, Cat watches with envy as their other cat-kin revel and frolic without them... but how much are they truly missing? Based loosely around “Cats: The Musical,” CAT creates its own experience with original songs, stories, and silliness. Written and Performed by: Cat McCluskey?.

A modern love story versus the snowstorm of the century. Late January 2020, the City of St. John's issues a state of emergency during Snowmaggedon. Inside their basement apartment, long-term couple Abe and Samson are in the midst of their own storm. They battle Canada's alleged well-regulated immigration system & each other, while their seaside town is relentlessly pummeled. As the snowdrifts grow, the storm rages on both out in the world & inside their home. Can they find a way through the tempest together? Will love be enough? A tender, loving, romantic drama oozing with heart-felt comedy.
NOTE: This performance includes ASL interpretation.
