Liminal Spaces: A Digital Play Trilogy
Partnering with MXL Live Loft and Nowadays Theatre, we produced the online premiere of Liminal Spaces: A Digital Play Trilogy.
Featuring three new one act plays, This event is in support of the CDA Institute Afghan Refugee Program. 20% of all ticket sales will be donated to this organization, which helps to facilitate the arrival of Afghan Refugees into Canada.
A liminal space is the time between the ‘what was’ and the ‘next.’ It is a place of transition, a season of waiting, and not knowing. Our three plays - MOTHER, DISCORd, and MPDG explore the fringes of life and death, reality and fiction, and the boundaries of consent. Challenging these evolving structures, these plays give us pause to reflect and question: "Where is the line?"
