The Middle Place October 21, 2010

This is the play that makes you spare change.

Playwirght, meet Toronto’s homeless. In 2007, a young, well-meaning, middle-class playwright accompanied Project: Humanity into the shelter system to do on-camera interviews with the residents of a Rexdale youth shelter. The Middle Place is what became of this unpredictable meeting in the middle. Verbatim from their testimony; this play gives voice to the unheard and sheds light on the forgotten.

For the first full production since its popular run at SummerWorks 2009, be prepared for an entertaining and compelling docudrama that deconstructs the stigmas around our city’s homeless youth.

“An eye-opening, intelligent and funny piece of verbatim theatre”
