Buddies founding artistic director returns with a theatrical fantasy set in the midst of the 2010 WikiLeaks scandal that imagines a queer love affair between two fictional characters inspired by Chelsea Manning and Adrian Lamo.

New Hats!

David Bateman and David Roche's acclaimed play, "People Are Horrible Wherever You Go", which is about two female tourists (played by the two Davids) whose relationship is pushed to the brink when they collide with a repressive foreign government. 

And Hope Thompson's latest play "Stiff", which is set against the invention of Viagra and untangles the desires and vulnerabilities among two couples who are on the hook for murder. Fresh off a three-week run in Los Angeles, "Stiff" is being directed in this production by Clinton Walker and stars Greg Campbell, Kirsten Johnson, Mary Krohnert and Andy Pogson. Set and Costumes by Sheree Tams.

And third on the bill is a set of readings by three of Toronto's hottest young theatre artists, Jenna Harris, JP Larocque and Jessica Moss.
