UPCOMING
CONNECT
Join Page1 Theatre in May for an afternoon of art, food, and connection!
CONNECT is a new Community Series that starts off with an arts based acivity, followed by a potluck. Each event is meant to be a cozy afternoon of sharing stories, music, and food.
IN DEVELOPMENT
This show aims to push back and tackle misinformation and misconceptions about refugees and asylum seekers, while highlighting the fact that everyone deserves a safe place to live, access to health care, food, and water.
This story will also draw on the increasing threat of climate change, specifically here in Mi’kma’ki / Atlantic Canada, and will challenge audiences to ask themselves - what does it mean to be a refugee?
What does it mean to seek asylum?
Combining first-hand testimony from survivors in Holland, and Toronto, as well as over five years of research, this show uses the 2016 gay purge of people in Chechnya as a starting place to reflect the current global rise of anti-Queer and anti-Trans rhetoric. Through text, movement, and music, we follow four characters who face the impacts of forced displacement, generational colonization, and ong0ing war.
