BWW Review: ORPHAN SONG at Tarragon Theatre
Set over 40, 000 years BCE, ORPHAN SONG follows the story of a Homo-sapiens couple struggling through the recent loss of a child.

Théâtre Français de Toronto Launches its 51st Season
The 2018-2019 season draws on the words of artists from Toronto and around the world, a season of 'giving voice' (Paroles manifestes) echoing the theme of 'outbursts' (Eclats manifestes) from TfT's 50th season. Audiences are invited to discover not only why key artists take position today, but also how. As such, each production is an exploration of "theatre as language", and how messages, arguments and joy are uniquely expressed through theatre. According to TfT's Artistic Director: 'Each play is an opportunity to discover the Other through their story and how they choose to tell it'.
