“Created, composed, and directed by award-winning theatre artist Bruce Dow — a two-time Dora Award winner with five featured roles on Broadway and 12 seasons at the Stratford Festival — this new work of music theatre draws on the writings of Oscar Wilde and his contemporaries to explore questions of love, sacrifice, meaning, and what it means to care for one another.

Inspired by Wilde’s The Happy Prince and Other Tales — originally written for his sons — and the words of his contemporaries — the piece moves beyond the familiar comfort of “stories for children” to ask more challenging questions of us as adults: What does it cost to care? What does it mean to give? And how do we live meaningfully in relation to others?

With choreography by internationally renowned choreographer, artist, and creator Jeff Dimitriou, and new orchestrations by Musical Director and Music Supervisor Ethan Rotenberg (Shaw Festival, Shifting Ground Collective), the production brings together a cast of emerging voices from across the Canadian theatre, dance, and opera worlds. Blending chorus, aria, movement, and text, the work emerges as a unique piece of music theatre.

This is a piece that asks something of its audience — and offers something in return.”
