I went to get my hair cut recently at United Kutz, a five- minute walk from the Grand Theatre. I was excited to tell Kwami and his team that at the heart of this new season we are presenting a production called Barber Shop Chronicles. It premiered at the National Theatre of London, England this past year and will be on a North American tour stopping at the Grand — the only Canadian venue. I’m excited about Kwami’s barbers meeting these British actors. For we are indeed WORLD CURIOUS, LONDON PROUD. Welcome. dennis garnhum, artistic director

a workshop production presented by the grand theatre and the stratford festival AN UNDISCOVERED SHAKESPEARE AN UNDISCOVERED SHAKESPEARE A Spontaneous Theatre production by Rebecca Northan OCTOBER 11 to 13 McMANUS STAGE One audience member. One love story. Ten beats per line. When William Shakespeare finds himself with writer’s block, his Muse delivers inspiration in the form of a surprise guest with a story to tell. At each performance, a willing patron is invited on stage to sit down with the Bard and share their personal love story. Every life is Shakespearean. Award-winning actor/improviser Rebecca Northan and a cast of some of Canada’s top improv talent spontaneously create Shakespeare’s “lost play” based on one person’s real-life romantic adventures — in iambic pentameter. From the creator of Blind Date comes her latest imagining. We are thrilled to be part of this new work in progress, and collaborating with the Stratford Festival. Blind Date has been seen around the world — imagine where this might travel. – DENNIS in development through the grand’s compass new play development program and the stratford festival laboratory. title sponsor partner SPECIAL EVENT
TIMOTHY FINDLEY’S “EPIC...breathtakingly haunting” THEWARS calgary herald Timothy Findley’s THE WARS Adapted and Directed by Dennis Garnhum OCTOBER 23 to NOVEMBER 11 SPRIET STAGE Opens October 26 This fall we commemorate the 100th anniversary of the end of the Great War and honour the sacrifices of our soldiers past and present with the Governor General Award-winning story, The Wars. By one of Canada’s most distinguished authors, this Canadian classic follows young Robert Ross from his Toronto family home to the muddy battlefields of France. Intense and powerful, The Wars reminds us of the sacrifice of our soldiers in the “war to end all wars.” One of the greatest people I have ever worked with was Timothy Findley. He was intensely patriotic and his passion for Canada was extraordinary. When he talked about this novel, he reminded me that we all live many wars in our lives, and it is how we navigate them that defines us. – DENNIS Set Designer Allan Stichbury, Costume Designer Christina Poddubiuk, Lighting Designer Bonnie Beecher, Sound Designer Richard Feren. title sponsor

THE BOY IN THE MOON “Deeply “Gripping” THE BOY IN THE MOON A Crow’s Theatre Production poignant” now magazine By Emil Sher based on a book by Ian Brown the globe and mail Directed by Chris Abraham Starring Kelly McNamee, Liisa Repo-Martell, and David Storch NOVEMBER 20 to DECEMBER 1 McMANUS STAGE The true story of a family’s journey of raising their son Walker, severely disabled due to a rare genetic disorder. This award-winning memoir by CBC Radio and Globe and Mail journalist Ian Brown, powerful and moving in print, is even more extraordinary on stage. Director Chris Abraham reflects upon the impact of the play in that “it challenges us to think about the fundamentally fragile and uncertain nature of parenting and of life.” Raw honesty abounds in this production. It begins with Ian’s story, is illuminated by Emil’s theatrical- ity, and explodes with the bold acting of the Crow’s Theatre company. It left me shattered when I saw this production, and I will never forget it. Never. – DENNIS Set and Costume Designer Shannon Lea Doyle, Lighting Designers André Du Toit and Kimberly Purtell, Video Designer and Production Manager Remington North, Sound Designer Thomas Ryder Payne, Assistant Sound Designer Deanna H.

“STUNNING” toronto star “An absolute triumph” MARGARET the globe and mail Margaret Atwood’s THE PENELOPIAD ATWOOD’S THE PENELOPIAD Directed by Megan Follows JANUARY 22 to FEBRUARY 9 SPRIET STAGE Opens January 25 “Now that I’m dead, I know everything.” So begins Penelope, the famously faithful wife of the Greek hero Odysseus, speaking from the afterlife in Hades. This all-female company retells Homer’s Odyssey through Penelope’s eyes: her husband’s return, along with vengeance and a shocking and violent injustice. Canadian literary icon Margaret Atwood (The Handmaid’s Tale, Alias Grace) flips the classical myth on its head, giving voice to the chorus of ten handmaidens. With acerbic wit and in- spired originality, this contemporary take on an ancient tale is Atwood at her finest. It is one thing to read Atwood, another to experience her words on the stage. Listen closely as these women from ancient times speak modern truths. – DENNIS director megan follows
MAGGIE AND PIERRE MAGGIE AND PIERRE By Linda Griffiths with Paul Thompson A timeshare Production Directed by Rob Kempson Starring Kaitlyn Riordan FEBRUARY 12 to 16 McMANUS STAGE Maggie is a 20-something flower child. Pierre is a 50-something Prime Minister. Henry is a reporter trying to make sense of a real-life soap opera playing out in front of a whole nation. The parents of our current Prime Minister come to life in a one-woman, Dora award-winning show on the making of Canada’s most famous romance. Electric and hilarious, it takes on a whole new resonance now that their son is in office. It’s a hilarious ride down memory lane. I couldn’t stop thinking about Justin throughout — one of their many unique accomplishments. – DENNIS Set and Costume Designer Jung-Hye Kim, Lighting Designer Oz Weaver, Sound Designer Steven Lafond.

Edmonton’s Catalyst Theatre returns with its powerhouse cast, led by the towering performance of Jan Alexandra Smith, in this tale of brutal revenge and frontier justice. Vigilante played to sold-out houses at the Grand two years ago, and London has inundated us with requests to bring it back. Let the music overtake you and the stories chill.

AUGUST FENCES August Wilson’s FENCES Directed by Djanet Sears WILSON’S Starring Nigel Shawn Williams MARCH 19 to APRIL 6 SPRIET STAGE Opens March 22 All great plays are about family. Set in Pittsburgh in the 1950s, a former Negro League baseball star now supports his family by working as a trash collector. The literal fence in the play is set in contrast to the poetic ones that Troy, his wife Rose, and his sons keep building up and trying to tear down. You’ll see why this is one of the most honoured plays of American theatre, winning the Pulitzer Prize along with Tony and Drama Desk awards for best new play. A contemporary classic. The play is grounded in gritty realism while sailing into lyrical inspiration at the same time. It leaves me both uplifted and devastated. That’s brilliant writing. – DENNIS “A masterpiece” variety “A hallmark of American theatre” the guardian title sponsor
a da ring a nd im mersi v e exp erience in t he mcm a n us CABARET CABARET Book by Joe Masteroff Based on the play by John Van Druten and Stories by Christopher Isherwood Music by John Kander, Lyrics by Fred Ebb Directed by Dennis Garnhum APRIL 9 to 27 McMANUS STAGE Opens April 11 “Willkommen, bienvenue, welcome.” Follow Sally Bowles down- stairs as she navigates the nightclub underworld of Berlin on the edge of fascism. Be drawn into the excesses and decadence of a time where everything was possible — until it wasn’t. Considered one of the greatest musicals ever, presented in a gritty, stripped- down, intimate setting that will extend from the McManus lobby and bar to the stage. Come to the Kit Kat Club, if you dare. Some stories become more relevant years or decades after they premiere. This musical is set against a backdrop where a brilliant society becomes a scary, scary world: freedoms become restricted, being unique becomes a threat. Sound familiar? – DENNIS
