A Diaspora Diaries Collective production co-presented by Common Ground Arts and Mile Zero Dance. Amaya is an immigrant, a daughter of immigrants, and a granddaughter of immigrants. She hasn’t been there for most of her family’s biggest moments. But now, after missing out on a funeral and receiving life-changing news, she has to decide if that is the future she wants for herself and her new family. How did those who came before decide to leave everything that they knew behind? Did they ever regret their decision? And how can she find out when most of them are now gone? But the veil is thin, and sometimes, all you need to do to have your questions answered is ask.

Nicolas, 20 ans, et Julie, 57 ans, vivent seuls l’un en face de l’autre, au troisième étage d’un immeuble à appartements. Sur le palier, ils se croisent, puis s’apprivoisent. Au départ improbable, une solide amitié naîtra pourtant entre eux. Il est au printemps de son existence ; elle apprend que la sienne sera moins longue que prévu… Au-delà des portes du palier, celles de la vie vont s’ouvrir et se fermer pour Nicolas et Julie. Dans ce cheminement, ils vont s’attacher l’un à l’autre et s’accompagner doucement, sans même s’en apercevoir. Lumineuse et remplie de tendresse, la pièce propose une réflexion sur la solitude, les relations intergénérationnelles et le choix de mourir dans la dignité.

Au fond de l’océan, Petite Ondine, fille du Roi de la mer, se sent étrangère parmi les siens. Elle rêve d'une autre vie, sur terre. Mais une sirène peut-elle trouver sa place parmi les humains ? Entremêlée des chansons de Nina Simone, Petite Ondine est une nouvelle création en théâtre d'objet de la Kleine Cie en collaboration avec le Théâtre La Seizième, qui s'inspire très librement de “La petite sirène” d'Hans Christian Andersen. Dans une forme "cabaret", l'utilisation de la vidéo révèle aux spectateurs le travail sur l'objet miniature et la matière qui se crée directement sur scène, et souligne la poésie et la délicatesse de cet univers sous-marin.

Tough Guy follows a group of friends as they navigate the aftermath of a shooting at Aria, a queer nightclub. They’re all nursing wounds, visible and invisible, and are thrown into further turmoil when their friend Emerson, a rising star in the independent film scene, comes back home to film a documentary about the shooting. How do we go on when the unthinkable happens? What does it mean to point a camera at a catastrophe? How does queerness endure, time and time again? Winner of the 2025 Westbury Family Theatre Award and the 2025 Alberta Playwriting Competition, Tough Guy is at once an excavation of a tragedy and a celebration of the tenacity of queer joy. It’s gripping, visceral, sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, always unapologetic.

Cette histoire de muffins aux bleuets et de chaussettes perdues transporte le public dans le monde d'une petite communauté francophone. Louise revient trouver ses racines et prendre charge de la buanderie qui appartenait à sa grand-mère après des années d'aventures à l'étranger. Elle retrouve aussi son meilleur ami d'enfance, Maxime, qui a toujours travaillé dans la boulangerie de sa famille sans même changer un ingrédient. Son monde bascule quand il vit une rupture avec sa blonde, Marie-Josée, une enseignante de maternelle qui cherche plus de créativité dans sa vie. Guillaume, musicien reconnu, revient lui aussi rester chez son ami Maxime, parce qu'il manque d'inspiration dans la grande ville. Au cœur de cette œuvre, on retrouve les thèmes de découvertes et retrouvailles, d'amour et d'amitié.
