SUMMARY:La Traviata
DESCRIPTION:The COC opens its 2026/2027 season with the return of Arin Arbus’ lush production of La Traviata. In Verdi’s beloved romantic tragedy\, Violetta is a celebrated courtesan who finds love with sweet Alfredo—but she is forced to choose between her own happiness or Alfredo’s reputation. This sumptuous production is set in the demi-monde of glittering 1850s Paris\, evoking the social realities\, rhythms\, and debauchery of a rapidly changing society. \nMaking a series of COC debuts are: sopranos Kathryn Lewek and Lucia Cesaroni sharing the role of Violetta\, tenor Luke Norvell as Alfredo\, and baritone Reginald Smith\, Jr. as Giorgio. The roles of Alfredo and Giorgio will be shared by returning tenor Long Long and baritone Russell Braun.

SUMMARY:First Date: A Musical Comedy
DESCRIPTION:Their date is falling apart. Your night is just getting started! \nEveryone has a first-date story. This one has songs. First Date is a laugh-out-loud musical comedy about modern dating and a very awkward night out. When a nervous first-timer meets a confident serial dater\, a simple drink turns into a spiral of overthinking\, bad instincts\, and inner voices saying exactly the wrong thing! \nFunny\, fast-paced\, and painfully relatable\, First Date proves that sometimes the hardest part of finding love is simply surviving the first date.

SUMMARY:Wine in the Wilderness
DESCRIPTION:He tried to paint her. She transformed the canvas.\nHarlem\, 1964. As riots unfold outside\, painter Bill Jameson is inside his apartment putting the final touches on a portrait series about Black womanhood. When Tommy is brought in to model\, her presence begins to reveal the quiet hierarchies shaping the evening. As drinks are poured and conversation loosens\, the group is forced to reckon with how easy it is to repeat the very judgments they hope to rise above. \nBy turns funny\, intimate\, and piercingly intelligent\, Wine in the Wilderness is a landmark work. Directed by Jordan Laffrenier\, whose searing production of Slave Play was a highlight of last season\, this revival brings fresh urgency and emotional precision to Alice Childress’ razor-sharp portrait of seeing and being seen.

SUMMARY:Avedon Aging: An Evening with Adam Gopnik
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed writer Adam Gopnik will speak both as a critic and confidante about Richard Avedon’s vision of age and artistry\, discussing work as varied as Avedon’s portraits of Sondheim\, Levant\, and Harold Arlen\, with particular and loving attention to the artist’s intentions and his own frequent transcendence of them. \nAbout the Speaker\nAdam Gopnik has been a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1986\, publishing over his forty years more than a million words in the magazine\, including essays\, memoirs \, fiction\, reviews and profiles. He has also published eleven books \, including Paris to the Moon\, The King in the Window\, Through the Children’s Gate\, At the Strangers’ Gate and Winter (The Fiftieth Anniversary Massey Lecture.) His work in the musical theater includes the libretto and lyrics for the musical comedies Our Table with David Shire and Fairy Tale and Looking Glass with Andrew Lippa \, as well as the opera The Swerve with Stewart Wallace. His one man show\, Adam Gopnik’s New York\, was called “hilarious and wise” by the New York Times and ran for three weeks at New York’s Lincoln Center\, and is now on tour from London to California. He has won the National Magazine Award for Essays and for Criticism three times\, as well as the George Polk Award for Magazine Reporting. In January of 2021\, he was made a chevalier of the Legion d’ honneur \, France’s highest civilian or military honor. He has also received an honoris causa from McGill University \, as well as from the Rhode Island School of Design\, and in 2025 was elected to the American Academy of Arts & Letters. Raised in Montreal\, he lives in New York with his wife\, Martha Parker\, and their two children\, varyingly present\, Luke Auden and Olivia Esme Claire. \nAbout the Exhibition\nRichard Avedon Immortal: Portraits of Aging\, 1951–2004\nFor nearly half a century\, celebrated American photographer Richard Avedon confronted one of portraiture’s enduring taboos: aging. From his earliest years at Harper’s Bazaar\, Avedon broke with the conventions of idealized celebrity portraiture\, revealing the marks of time on his subjects’ faces with unsparing clarity. Bringing together nearly 100 portraits made between the early 1950s and 2004\, the exhibition features artists\, writers\, musicians\, and cultural icons including Toni Morrison\, Gabriel García Márquez\, Duke Ellington\, Ronald Reagan\, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor\, Patti Smith\, Truman Capote\, and the Dalai Lama. Immortal also includes a restaging of Avedon’s seminal 1974 Museum of Modern Art exhibition Jacob Israel Avedon\, which chronicled his father’s final years in nine extraordinary portraits. Taken as a whole\, the photographs reveal a lesser-known dimension of Avedon’s practice and offer an unprecedented exploration of aging through his distinctive vision. \nExhibition on view September 9–December 5\, 2026The Image Centre\, Toronto \nLocation\nChrysalis (formerly known as Ryerson Theatre) is located at 43 Gerrard Street East in Toronto. The venue is located on the campus of Toronto Metropolitan University. The nearest major intersection is Yonge Street & Gerrard Street. \nPresented in association with The Creative School Chrysalis. \nEvent Sponsor: Extendicare

SUMMARY:To a Flame
DESCRIPTION:By Erin Shields. A 1s1 Theatre and Nightwood Theatre co-production\, in association with Modern Times Stage Company and Why Not Theatre \nAn explosive theatrical feast of image and language. \nTo a Flame is an explosive theatrical feast of image and language that pulls the audience deep into a Victorian Gothic Horror. Three confined women await the conclusion of their stories in the ancestral home of the man they call Father. Secrets burn to be revealed\, aches of the past refuse to be suppressed\, and the very house itself vibrates with desire for revenge. \nThis groundbreaking new work by Governor General’s Award-winning playwright Erin Shields and directed by Josette Bushell-Mingo intertwines American Sign Language and English with vibrant movement and live music into a haunting\, multi-sensory performance that brings Deaf and hearing audiences into a shared theatrical experience through its bilingual artistic design. The ensemble cast features Deaf performer and cultural leader Dawn Jani Birley\, with Nickeshia Garrick\, and Juliana Monk\, accompanied by cellist Beth Silver.
