Our new Hot House Crossing program has been a transformative playwright development unit for new immigrant and refugee theatre artists in Canada. The program was born out of the Crossing Gibraltar outreach program and our Hot House Lift Off playwriting unit. 

Under the facilitation of dramaturges Santiago Guzmán and Natércia Napoleão, we are excited to share with you excerpts of the scripts each of the six playwrights has been working on over the last several months. Join us for the hour-long showcase on YouTube followed by a talkback on Zoom with the playwrights and the dramaturges.
