A building burns down and we are transported back to the events leading up to the fire. We learn about the relationships of the people involved as they relate to each other in their respective and private apartments in the complex, as well as in the neutral territories of the building. Through this, we bear witness to the secrets they hold about themselves and the city.
Inspired by interviews with Torontonians, this intense parabolic play retraces the events leading up to a building fire and how they relate to the eccentricities and stresses that come from living in Toronto. This innovative and visceral fusion of text based and physical theatre styles tracks through the memories of the four survivors of the Canada Day fire, as the play seeks to identify what it means to be ‘Torontonian’; what binds us together and what tears us apart.
