Toronto: The Vault Creation Lab presents “Reproduktion” August 21-24

Friday, August 8, 2025

The Vault Creation Lab presents Reproduktion August 21-24.

Flora, desperate to become pregnant, travels to her homeland of Sweden to undergo an alternative fertility treatment that is “guaranteed to reproduce.” As a result of the procedure, a surprising and dangerous transformation occurs, throwing everything she thought she knew about herself and the world into question. By turns funny and moving, Reproduktion examines the ancient imperative to procreate and how to find meaning in our lives when that primal call goes unanswered.

Award-winning playwright Amy Rutherford and director Jonathon Young join forces to create an unforgettable evening in which sounds are recorded and mixed live, reproducing the play's soundscore in real time each night.

AUDIENCE EXPERIENCE: The sound experience will shift and grow nightly as the lab progresses and the creative team makes changes based on audience experience and feedback.

A sister company to the Coal Mine Theatre, The Vault Creation Lab is a space where writers, creators and playwrights are afforded the opportunity to explore, experiment and invest in their ideas in the critical stages of development. The Vault offers playwrights and artists community and a place to train, commune, craft and grow.
