By munish Sharma
Directed by Judy Wensel
George Reed is a Saskatchewan legend - elite athlete, advocate, and humanitarian. The show takes us on the incredible journey highlighting George’s groundbreaking career, his move to the prairies, and how he won over the community. Footage and game highlights from his record-breaking career with the Saskatchewan Roughriders give audiences a view from the 55-yard line. #34 was commissioned by the Globe Theatre to coincide with the 2022 Grey Cup in Regina and to honour the man who put the city on the map. George Reed’s story is one of resilience and determination, and this production offers Canada a theatrical glimpse into a unique side of prairie life.

Sir john a: Acts of a
gentrified Ojibway rebellion
by drew hayden taylor
Directed by Erin Goodpipe & Jayden Pfeifer
A ‘buddy’ adventure that is part road trip - part grand heist – this story follows two Ojibway men, Bobby Rabbit, and his wannabe rock star friend Hugh, who leave their reserve and head out on the TransCanada highway to right a cultural wrong. To retrieve his grandfather’s medicine pouch from the British museum, Bobby and Hugh will steal precious relics to hold as ransom – Sir John A. MacDonald’s bones. Along the way they pick up, Anja a white student from a prestigious university with opinions on absolutely everything. These three sort historical fact from fiction to chart their own terms for reconciliation. First premiering at The National Arts Centre, this is a funny and inquisitive piece of theatre that invites us all to brush off the cobwebs of history with grace, courage and a few laughs along the road.

The Birds and the bees
by mark crawford
Directed by Anita Smith
Produced in a first-time collaboration with Saskatoon’s Persephone Theatre.
This comedic romp through a local bee farm has a big heart to match the big laughs. Watch as mothers and daughters, farmers, and scientists come together in Mark Crawford’s funny and flirty play about life and love. The action centers around Gail’s farm: her failing beehives; her middle-aged daughter moving back home; her neighbour of 20 years, Earl, who keeps showing up more and more; and stirring things up is Ben, the young biology student who investigates the missing bees.
From the playwright of Bed and Breakfast comes a springtime romance just in time for planting season.
