Real Canaan Theatre presents THE MERCHANT OF VENICECan justice and mercy co-exist?In a culture of demonstration and forced relevancy, Real Canaan Theatres anti-gimmick, no frills approach is a deeply honest exploration of Shakespeares perhaps most controversial play.

Balancing the spirit and letter of the law has never seemed a more daunting task.THE MERCHANT OF VENICE is performed by Aaron MacPherson, Bridget Ori, Elyssia Giancola, Freya Scerri Diacono, Hadley Abrams, Kitti Laki, and Roberto Ercoli.Directed by Christopher LucasDesigned and Produced by Carrie LucasSeptember 8th - 25th, 2022At the Red Sandcastle Theatre922 Queen St E, Toronto$15 Student and Arts Worker / $28 Advance / $35 Door7:00PM Doors/7:30PM Showtime2:00PM Doors/2:30PM Weekend MatineesApproximately 1 hour 45 minutes, with a 15 minute intermission Poster Design by Sam Waters sam-waters.com *Please read Red Sandcastle Theatres COVID19 safety protocols: https://redsandcastletheatre.com/covid-safety-protocols/.
