Created by Canadian husband and wife team Irene Snakoff and David Hein, the rippling impact of 9/11 across the world is felt in a Newfoundland town, when no less than 38 transatlantic flights are ordered to land. The Broadway production has proven a storming success and was nominated for seven Tony Awards, winning Best Direction of a Musical.
Off Broadway Theatre: Becoming Banksy
Becoming Banksy makes its debut in Toronto for an extremely limited engagement, before moving to New York next year. Becoming Banksy , an uproarious new comedy from the creators of smash off-Broadway hit Channeling Kevin Spacey. Spacey debuted to rave reviews in Toronto, where it sold out each of its performances and set up its breakout off-Broadway run of two years. Now, the creators of Spacey are proud to introduce Becoming Banksy, directed by DORA nominated director Benjamin Blais. Becoming Banksy is part fast-paced comedy, part heartwarming introspection, making it the can't-miss show of the theatre season!
