Toronto’s “Best Movement Based Theatre Company” (2006 NOW), Theatre Rusticle presents a poetic and darkly hopeful tale inspired by one of Shakespeare’s bloodiest plays. Birnam Wood weaves together the dreams and nightmares of a forest that witnessed acts of greed, power and the unimaginable with our own inimitable physical style.
“Director Allyson McMackon sails into uncharted terrain where theatre meets dance, words meet movement and set design is an extension of your imagination” – The Vancouver Province.
Theatre Passe Muraille will continue to strengthen its role in developing new work in-house as it supports emerging and established independent companies and project-based artists in various ways.
Theatre Passe Muraille subscribers will have access to discounted tickets to these shows.
