King of Canada is a meta-theatrical political comedy with two actors: a woman and a man. The man plays Canadian Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King, and the woman plays everybody else; close to forty other characters including King’s mother, FDR, Churchill, Hitler, and three Irish terriers named Pat. King of Canada, directed by Zach Fraser, streamed live online November 6th @ 7:30PM and November 8th @ 2PM. READ THE ARTICLE IN THE GAZETTE.
After 22 years as Infinithéâtre’s Artistic Director, Guy Sprung will be stepping down at the end of February and director/producer/actor Zach Fraser will take the reins of the company in March 2021.

As incoming artistic director, Fraser’s undertakings have already begun; in addition to directing upcoming production King of Canada, he and Sprung look forward to working together during this busy transitional time while Fraser plans for the future, starting with the 2021-22 season.

The Infinite Playwrights' Chat Room is Infinithéâtre's latest play development initiative, inviting members of the public across Canada to participate in the development of a series of exciting new plays. Our playwrights are looking for your help to write the next draft of their play. This is a genuine dramaturgical process, followed by a live Zoom on-line chat session with the playwright and moderator, taking up your suggestions, addressing your questions and hopefully providing the writer with fresh inspiration for the new draft.

Red Peter turned the stage into a veritable annual report of the company. His speech, his accusation and his actions completely blurred the biological boundary between man and ape ... civilization and barbarism, freedom and slavery, hypocrisy and nature ... Hold on tight!
