Here For Now Theatre, Stratford's award-winning independent theatre, brings nine new Canadian plays to its intimate downtown stage in 2027, with five of the seven main productions being comedies.
Canadian Premiere: The Shoe
By David Paquet, translated by Leanna Brodie | Directed by Bob White
A trip to the dentist sets off an epic meltdown for eight-year-old Benoit, and it changes four lives along the way. Two-time Governor General's Award winner David Paquet serves up a surreal, darkly funny story about difference, resilience and compassion.
