APPLICATION DEADLINE: FRIDAY, APRIL 10TH ABOUT THE SHOW Little Elves is a new horror-holiday musical loosely based on the folktale of St. Nicholas & the Evil Butcher. The story centers three young elves who after killing their captor, create an elaborate lie in order to survive. A reimagining of a folktale gone wrong, Little Elves brings the audience into a world of lies, deceit, and desperation. It explores a variety of intersectional themes among which are interrogations of “justified” vengeance, IBPOC relationships to religion, abolitionist interventions within cycles of violence, and the longstanding history of Anti-Asian policies and sentiments in Turtle Island (Canada). Overall, the piece asks the question, “when the odds are stacked against you, what will you do to survive”? The music of the piece is deeply rooted in a variety of folk, country, and pop sounds.

Co-Production with Thumbs Up Good Work and presented by One Yellow Rabbit as part of the 40th Annual High Performance Rodeo. ABOUT THE SHOW: When the city is built on lies, someone has to bring the house down. Corporate landlord Jordan Jamieson sits at the top of his empire. He is rich, ruthless and riding high alongside his whip smart executive assistant and the mayor in his back pocket. It's not long before a fearless prosecutor starts asking questions and we see cracks beginning to form and Jordan's power starting to crumble. From award-winning playwright Caleigh Crow, and composers Sacha Crow and Gus Rendell, Hucksterland is a new musical pulsing with humour, heart and rebellion. It’s loud. It’s fearless. And when the music stops, not everyone makes it out alive. Content warnings: Course language, examples of homophobia, misogyny, ableism, portrayal of sexual acts, heavy drinking, and heavy drug use. Accessibility considerations: bright & flashing lights & loud punk music CAST AND CREW CREATIVE TEAM CALEIGH CROW • Book Writer and Director SACHA CROW • Music & Lyrics, Music Director, and Sound Design GUS RENDELL • Music & Lyrics and Drummer MACKENZIE MEDING • Bassist NEIL FLEMING • Technical Director and Set & Projection Designer KATRIONA DUNN • Costume & Props Designer AJAY BADONI • Lighting Designer NAOMI ESAU • Stage Manager SABRENA SHAH BAIGZADA • Assistant Stage Manager KODIE ROLLAN • Producer & Production Manager SAMUEL KUGBIYI • Production Mentee CAST MIKE TAN • Jordan Jamieson JOSH BERTWISTLE • Jan Van Jan MICHELLE THRUSH • Belinda Moss SAFIA COMTOIS-MOHAMAD • Aspyn Colorado COLIN WOLF • Fritz TECHNICAL CREW MARC LAVALLEE • Theatre Technician ABBY WEEKS • Theatre Technician SALLIEMAE SALCEDO • Sound Technician ANA MULINO • Production Assistant
