Event Description
Behind the Moon
by Anosh Irani
Feb 4 – Mar 2 2025
“Finds the beauty and the misery entwined in the search for a better life across the globe.” - Intermission Magazine
Hailed as “one of CanLit’s most innovative chameleons,” playwright and author Anosh Irani takes us to the Mughlai Moon restaurant in Toronto, where Ayub cooks, cleans, and waits for his future to begin. His father’s friend, Qadir, has brought him to Canada with a promise of permanency that never seems to materialize. A mysterious stranger brings with him the clarity that Ayub needs to free himself from the limbo in which he is suffocating.
Behind the Moon runs February 4 – March 2 with Pay What You Can tickets available for all performances.
