Event

Lion in the Streets
Isobel, a nine-year old Portuguese girl, races around her neighbourhood lost and frightened. She observes a series of interconnected episodes that give graphic glimpses into the desperate and unsettled lives of the strangers in her community. With no distinction between reality and fantasy, Isobel is drawn into a dreamlike state to consider the power of compassion, forgiveness, and redemption.

The play is being performed by Resonance Theatre Collective, a group of professionals from across Canada and the United States.

Bronwyn Carradine - Director

Carradine directed her first play, Train Tracks, a show based on 14 year old Prince Tyres death, when she was 17. Since then she has been travelling across the country both in productions and continuing her training. After a summer at the Stratford Festival, she attended Bishops University, and later Studio 58 where she was able to continue her passion for acting, as well as writing and directing. AD credits include: Elbow Room Cafe, the Musical phase 1 & 2 (Zee Zee Theatre), Romeo & Juliet (The Chop), and Dressing For a Wedding (Solo Collective). Most recent writing credits include: Honour (Zee Zee Theatre), Polished (Intrepid Theatre) Numbers (Studio 58), No Strings Attached (Risky Nights).
