Over the past two years we have had Kalle and his band in our room a couple of times, and it has been great to watch them grow so fast.

Cock - Winner of the Olivier Award
After John and M break up, John finds himself falling in love with W, a woman. When he goes back to M, he wonders: Is he gay, straight, bisexual? When M suggests they all share a dinner it’s an evening that will change the way you look at a love triangle.

Bull - A Canadian Premier
Three employees wait to meet their boss; after which only two will have their jobs.  The chronic under-employment faced by Millennials means this play is full of high stakes, low morals and a need to win at all costs.

See one production at full price, come back to see the second for just $12

With the human rights atrocities occurring around the world, the members of Pride Winnipeg agreed that we must do something to aid those who are at risk of persecution or worse for being LGBTTQ*,” says Pride Winnipeg President, Jonathan Niemczak.
