A 1s1 Theatre and Nightwood Theatre co-production
In association with Modern Times Stage Company and Why Not Theatre

To a Flame is an explosive theatrical feast of image and language that pulls the audience deep into a Victorian Gothic Horror in which three confined women await the conclusion of their story in the ancestral home of the man they call Father. Secrets burn to be revealed, aches of the past refuse to be suppressed and the very house itself vibrates with desire for revenge. This groundbreaking work intertwines American Sign Language and English with vibrant movement and live music into a haunting, multi-sensory performance for Deaf and hearing audiences. Featuring celebrated Deaf performer and cultural leader Dawn Jani Birley, internationally-renowned director Josette Bushell-Mingo, and vivid text by Governor General Award-winning playwright Erin Shields, with the support of the company, this theatrical experience is not to be missed.
