SUMMARY:Film Screening: Thog's Hamlet
DESCRIPTION:A Hamlet like no other… \nPresented as part of National Canadian Film Day\, Thog’s Hamlet is a rare chance to encounter an extraordinary piece of Canada’s theatre history. Originally created in 1971 by Steven Bush and a young ensemble of performers\, this radical reimagining of Hamlet features 2 Hamlets\, 2 Ophelias\, and many Ghosts. Youth-driven\, politically alert\, and formally unconventional\, it was captured on the fly by the “free camera” of Richard Leiterman under René Bonnière’s direction. \nThe film stands as both a remarkable screen work and a rare record of a singular theatrical experiment. It preserves the raw energy\, imagination\, and communal drive of the original production\, offering a chance to experience a bold and unconventional take on Shakespeare that still feels striking today. \nThe screening will be followed by a conversation and Q&A with Linda Butler and Steven Bush\, members of the original creative team. \nDuration: Approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes\, including intermission and post-screening Q&A. \nMany thanks to our partner at Reel Canada. \nFree admission. Space is limited; please RSVP here to reserve your spot.

SUMMARY:Travis Knights — Tap Dance is Political: Bill Robinson and The Ha
DESCRIPTION:Tap dance has always carried more than rhythm. \nThis lecture-demonstration uses tap dance as a living archive to explore how Black artists of the Harlem Renaissance\, specifically Bill Robinson\, used movement\, rhythm\, and charisma to navigate a world shaped by racism and control. Through storytelling and live performance\, we connect early 20th-century tap dance to Black representation and the politics of being seen. \nPresenting partners: dance Immersion and Canada’s Theatre Museum. In collaboration with Dance Collection Danse. \nAdmission: free (registration required). Light refreshments available.
