Sanctuary Passages

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008

Sanctuary is a ministry to street people in downtown Toronto.

“About a year and a half ago at Sanctuary, a small group started working on creating a ‘community play’. The group gathered individuals from our community and began asking simple questions designed to prompt a wide range of reminiscences. Those responses were recorded and became the raw material for Sanctuary’s first ever completely home-grown full-length theatrical production.*

And so, it is with great excitement that we are announcing the upcoming performances of */The Passages of Everett Manning/ *– a play inspired by the Sanctuary community.

It’s worth noting that, in the play, we portray our community as honestly and honorably as possible. And since our community comes with a lot of rough edges, there is some content and language in the play that could be offensive. While the play is far from grim, the realism of some of the street scenes means that it’s not children’s fare.

Performances are running every Friday and Saturday night through April at 8:00 p.m. and tickets are available in advance for $12, at the door for $15 or for $10 for groups of 10 or more. To order tickets, visit http://sanctuarytoronto.ca/screamingmonkeys/passages/ or
part1.09020803.05080705@sanctuarytoronto.ca>call us at 416-922-0628 x.215. Seeing this play on stage will be the fulfillment of a dream for many of us at Sanctuary and we will hope to see you there. Thanks for your support!”
