SUMMARY:Tiger Bride
DESCRIPTION:A fairy tale with teeth. \nA rock-fueled\, punk-infused reimagining of Angela Carter’s The Tiger’s Bride\, this electrifying song cycle turns Beauty and the Beast inside out. Here\, the Beast doesn’t become a man—instead\, the Girl becomes something wilder. Blurring the lines between girl and woman\, human and animal\, power and submission\, Tiger Bride is a raw\, gothic horror pulsing with sex\, fury\, and transformation. Part rock concert\, part cabaret\, part theatre\, this is no tidy fairy tale—it’s an untamed\, unapologetic roar.

SUMMARY:layers of kin
DESCRIPTION:layers of kin \nBy Angela Vitovec \nCo-presented by Toronto Dance Theatre and Luminato Festival \nSupported by the Ontario Arts Council and the Province of Ontario \n \nYou are invited into an imperial space overtaken by plant life\, where movement\, sound\, and space emerge beyond human logic. In layers of kin\, performers move in kinship with moss\, yarrow\, clover\, and oak to explore the connection between humans and the more-than-human world. \nUnfolding in close proximity to the audience\, the choreography emphasizes attentiveness and shared presence\, allowing movement\, sound\, and space to shape the performance in real time. The work favours quiet accumulation over spectacle\, revealing patterns of connection\, resilience\, and coexistence as the dancers move together across the space\, creating a post-imperial ballroom utopia. \nChoreographed by Angela Vitovec and co-presented and co-produced by Toronto Dance Theatre\, the piece continues Vitovec’s exploration of plant consciousness and interdependence\, following earlier works Sammal/Moss and Mossbelly. \nContent warning: may include nudity.

SUMMARY:Masterclass
DESCRIPTION:Masterclass \nBy Brokentalkers \nPresented by Luminato Festival \nSupported by Culture Ireland \n \nWhat’s the key to creating great art? When a playwright is asked\, absurdity ensues. \nCreated by Dublin-based company Brokentalkers with performer Adrienne Truscott\, the award-winning Masterclass turns the art world on its head in a sharp\, hilarious satire that takes aim at masculinity\, sexism\, and power in the cultural canon. \nFramed as a live artist interview\, the show introduces a swaggering\, self-proclaimed male genius playwright (Truscott) opposite a fawning\, significant host (Feidlim Cannon). As the conversation unfolds\, bravado\, ego\, and artistic myth-making collide — exposing the stories we’ve been told about “greatness\,” and who has historically been allowed to claim it. \nBlending razor-sharp comedy with theatrical mischief\, Masterclass shifts from playful parody to something more revealing\, laying bare the structures of privilege and power that shape the art we celebrate. Funny\, biting\, and unexpectedly disarming. It asks who gets to be called a genius — and at whose expense. \nContent warning: contains strong language and adult themes.
