2012–13 Season of Plays

11 Plays from Acclaimed Canadian Playwrights

It begins with an idea scribbled down on paper. Perhaps it begins with an image or a shared experience. At Tarragon, we pride ourselves on shaping the written word; on bringing to life onstage what is written on the page.

Tarragon’s 2012–13 season highlights interconnectivity — on a personal and global scale. The stories may relay individual and separate experiences, but they reflect our commonality and connection.

We invite you to travel the world with us and share in this experience; one that we hope leaves you laughing and crying — and perched on the edge of your seat. We invite you to immerse yourself in these stories that both separate and pull us together.

This is theatre. At the Tarragon.
