Taking Care of Maman Free Community Preview Performance

About this event

We tour this show for Grades 4 to 8 or ages nine and up to schools across Ontario (and this season, Saskatchewan!). This is for families in our community and local educators to see the show before it heads out on the road! Originally created for Roseneath's Digital_Dialogues, this powerful piece has evolved into a full-length stage play ready to tour to schools and venues throughout Ontario. Synopsis: Eli’s maman is having her sadness again and she knows the only one who can help is their neighbour Madame Jean. This funny and touching piece explores how two completely different generations develop a supportive and lasting relationship during the hardest time of the pandemic. The play covers themes of storytelling, mental health and immigration. It connects to ​visual art, health and physical education, language, media literacy, drama. dance and music curriculums.
