Meet Emilia Bassano. She’s angry at how she is silenced, struggling to publish, defined by the men in her life. Angry that she is remembered by history only as the “Dark Lady” of Shakespeare’s sonnets. A poet, a feminist, a mother and more. Can all these identities reside in the same person? An award-winning play with an all-female cast.

For the last two decades Lee Jay Bamberry has written, directed, and toured plays that pack a punch, with edge and bite. With such themes as: addiction, dementia, abduction, human trafficking, and now the sordid Residential School chapter of Canadian history.
Lee Jay’s indigenous heritage is from his Grandmother, Sarah Bernard, being a full blood Mi’Kmaq from Burnt Church, New Brunswick, where he spent many of his childhood summers growing up.

Meet Walt. He’s got a screenplay that he wants you to see. It’s about Walt (everything’s about Walt), and about how his family is all going to miss him when he’s dead. You’re going to miss him too. Walt’s sure of it. This is a play about egos and empires and changing the world, whether it wants to be changed or not. Canadian première.
