Event Description
Of The Sea Productions presents EXPERIMENT 1a Created by Elsa McKnight and Directed by Elsa McKnight & Kyra Mevis. EXPERIMENT 1a was created to explore the stages of human (and humanity's) development in a theatrical setting, EXPERIMENT 1a is the intersection of the scientific method and theatre. We are excited to welcome you to Tabula Rasa Laboratory: the home to innovation and creative problem-solving. Your participation in EXPERIMENT 1a is invaluable to our research and to society by extension. We are currently resetting the lab and are almost ready to begin the experiment.
The Of The Sea Productions team wants to acknowledge that we are in the traditional homeland of the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, and Huron-Wendat peoples. We want to acknowledge and recognize these peoples and their ancestors as peoples who inhabited these lands since time immemorial. Much of our team comes from a line of settlers and we want to acknowledge the privilege I have of being able to navigate and create art on these lands that do not belong to us. We are guests on this territory, and we are eternally grateful that we can make theatre here. We would not be who we are without the indigenous artists who came before us and who are constant inspirations. We encourage you to think of ways you can support Indigenous organizations. How are you working towards reconciliation in your own life? Or on a grander scale? While acknowledging the land is important, there is much more to reconciliation. The actions of the white settlers and Canadian government have created generations of trauma and pain and we must continue learning the truth and sitting in the discomfort of our country's past.
