Pi Theatre’s Pi Provocateur Series is back with This Is the Story of the Child Ruled by Fear, created by a team of award-winning artists from across Canada, at the KW Studios from June 2 to 4.

David Gagnon Walker has written and performs in the play, helped by a gathering of friends and strangers, reading together out loud. Audience members wil be self selected for each performance. Cooperating as a group, they help tell a story about worry and wonder, loneliness and community, beauty and fear.

Described alternately as an imaginary story of an imaginary child in an imaginary land or a poetic fable about how to live with the slowly unfolding emergencies of our world, it’s also an invitation to join in on the artistic process. In addition,This Is the Story of the Child Ruled by Fear is a testament to the power of a roomful of people discovering a new story together.
