After the Trojan Women

A chorus of women across cultures, identities, and generations gather in a threshold where time collapses, where worlds collide, where women stand. This epic new work inspired by Euripides’ classic meets three modern Syrian women after a wild storm brings them to the shores of Turkey as the ancient Trojan Women prepare for their voyage to Greece. Thrilling, heartbreaking, and inspiring, After the Trojan Women will sweep you across millennia and cultures of women in times of war and perseverance.

Cycle

Cycle by Andrew Ritchie—a high-octane, immersive theatre experience set on a stationary bike. This groundbreaking solo performance is written, developed, and performed by Ritchie. Cycle offers a dynamic and energetic experience that explores the gritty realities and exhilarating moments of active transportation and cycling culture in Canada.  Audience members are invited to engage in the performance physically, seated on stationary bikes as they pedal alongside Ritchie, mirroring his intense ride as he traverses the dangers and highs of urban transportation. Through this interactive format, Cycle shines a light on Ritchie’s real-life experiences as a bike food courier in Toronto, and the financial and physical precariousness of trying to make a living in the gig economy. A deeply personal and politically charged journey, Cycle will get your blood pumping and cultivate a new respect for the two-wheeled travel. *Limited stationary bikes for audience members available on a first come-first-serve basis.
