Presented by Canadian Stage for the Festival of Ideas and Creation, this theatrical walk took a trip starting at Berkeley Street Theatre, along Toronto’s Esplanade, through the Canadian Opera Company, into the Performing Arts Lodge – a housing development for retired performers – and finally onto the balcony of the St. Lawrence Market where audience members were given a map and asked to find their own way back to the theatre for a community dinner.
