I've written a bit of a reflection of the questions I'm asking these days, and what life is like, running a theatre (from home, without a theatre) and living with my beloved who works on the front lines of the pandemic. https://t.co/u9ybsniNJ1 via @buddiesTO

Call for Submissions:

Part of our reimagined Queer Pride Festival, we're seeking analogue projects celebrating Pride where you are. Think window installations, porch performances: whatever else you can dream up to fit this physically-distant time.

7/ We believe so strongly in this piece of theatre, and we look forward to sharing it with you all when we can do so in a way that ensures the health & safety of our artists & audiences. We’ll share more info when we have it. Until then—take care, be well, be kind, and stay home!

[Discord and Din @DiscordandDin]

1/ Yesterday would have been our first day of rehearsals for ‘Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again.’ - a play we have been working for the past three years to produce. As with so many of our peers, the decision to postpone was an inevitable one, but not one taken lightly.

[Discord and Din @DiscordandDin]

6/ Ella Morton who did the portrait photography, and the @CanadaCouncil, @ONArtsCouncil, @TorontoArts and @TheCayleAwards who have all supported this production.
