Authors on Stage Tanya Talaga

Join us for another Authors on Stage series in partnership with BookLore, an evening with Tanya Talaga. In discussion with moderator Bernadette Hardaker, we discuss her latest book, The Knowing.

From the publisher:

For generations, Indigenous People have known that their family members disappeared, many of them after being sent to residential schools, "Indian hospitals" and asylums through a coordinated system designed to destroy who the First Nations, Metis and Inuit people are. This is one of Canada's greatest open secrets, an unhealed wound that until recently lay hidden by shame and abandonment.

The Knowing is the unfolding of Canadian history unlike anything we have ever read before. Award-winning and bestselling Anishinaabe author Tanya Talaga retells the history of this country as only she can - through the Indigenous lens.

Tickets to this event are $35/ea - OR - Get tickets to all THREE upcoming Authors on Stage events for $90.

  • Thursday September 26th; Diana Beresford-Kroeger
  • Sunday October 6th; Marc Garneau & Carol Off

Join us for the moderated discussion, stay for the apres-show reception catered by one of our hospitality sponsors with food & refreshments.

What is Theatre for Young Audiences?

We believe theatre is a powerful tool. It dramatizes and contextualizes the world. It invites us to walk in other’s shoes; see the world through their eyes.

All of our Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA) shows are grounded in the Ontario curriculum; they teach, through theatre.

Bonus: we hire educators to create study packages, so your classroom can get the most out of the experience.
