We’re absolutely thrilled to be included in the Globe and Mail’s Best Theatre of 2025 list! Feeling very lucky to be in such amazing company.

As the year comes to a close we can’t help but be a little nostalgic for 2025, which was probably our most exciting year to date?? Thank you to each and every one of you who joined Iris on this journey, from workshop to workshop to workshop and finally to a fully staged production at the Fringe. We have some news coming in the new year about some new projects we have in the works, but we certainly haven’t forgotten about Iris and have plans for her continued development soon.

All this to say: follow along! The best place to get Mixtape news the moment it’s announced is right here, on our Instagram. Comment along and DM us anytime, we love staying connected with our audience in between projects ✨💕

Big love to you all!! Have the best December ever and an even better New Year!

Last week we had the time of our lives returning to Iris (says goodbye)!! Working with this most incredible team was a huge pleasure and we are so excited by the growth of this piece and the new places we went with Iris’s story. More to come, but for now enormous thanks to everyone involved (shout out to the OAC for funding this!!!).
