Far-Flung Peoples
About the event
The phone is ringing. The roof is banging. French downstairs. English upstairs. Caught in the middle: five people, one couch, and a landlord calling it an open-concept bedroom. Welcome to Far-Flung Peoples, an award-winning, fast-paced, multilingual dark comedy set inside a crooked house in downtown Toronto, where its residents are squeezed into a living arrangement that would raise questions at City Hall, if City Hall were paying attention. The winner of the Norma Epstein Foundation Award and the Hamilton Fringe New Play Contest, Far-Flung Peoples, is funny until it is not.
