Eraser by Homeland Collective will be premiering at the 2016 Toronto Fringe Festival, this summer, from June 29 – July 10th, 2016 at Westside Montessori School, 95 Bellevue Avenue, Toronto.
Eraser is a site-specific physical theatre show, set in a downtown Toronto school. From kindergarten to grade six, the performers explore immigration, bullying, puberty, first crushes, racism, and queer family structures. Our exciting new play captures these memories. Performed by some of Toronto’s rising talent – you are sure to laugh and cry as you are transported back in time when pencils and erasers were among your best companions.
“Once we become adults it is easy to forget our roots and earliest influences. Children are often thought of as innocent. Through our explorations, we have uncovered the depth, complexities and traumas that hide beneath this layer of innocence.”
Eraser, directed by Sadie Epstein-Fine and Elise LaCroix, features an outstanding 6-person ensemble: Moe Baloch; Christol Bryan; Deanna Galati; Victoria Gubiani; Michael Pintucci; Nathan Redburn.
The creative team is comprised of Aman Banwait (Sound Design); Jocelyn Graham (Costume/Set Design); Zack Lovetime (Stage Manager); Madeleine Monteleone (Stage Manager); Winnie Nwakobi (Producer); Molly Thomas (Dramaturg); Cole Vincent (Lighting Design).
Tickets to Eraser are available for $10 starting June 9th, 2016. Contact the Festival Box Office for more information at 416.966.1062 or visit fringetoronto.com. All online and phone sales will be subject to a $2 order fee.
