Join us for readings of works-in-progress from Canada’s inaugural documentary theatre creators’ unit.
Over the past year, with support from Crow’s and documentary theatremaker Andrew Kushnir, these artists have launched original projects using verbatim theatre techniques. On Sunday March 18, they’ll be sharing excerpts of their work-so-far.
