this original anansi tale on how ginnals came to be has taken me all over - from the backyard of the @blackartndialog gallery to the foremost caribbean theatre stage @carifesta2019 - now back for a homecoming @buddiesto where the 20 minute idea was tenderly incubated in 2012.

with love and gratitude to all who contributed to the realization of this contemporary myth: evalyn parry, victoria wang, kelly read, owais lightwala, brian solomon, jesse ellis, samson bonkeabantu brown, karen carter, rhoma spencer, toronto arts council, canada council for the arts

shoutout to the dreamy collaborators weaving the web of this newest iteration: @dbiyounganitafrika @racheljforbes @thefairyj @lexsproule @spliffon_ @obsidiantheatre @buddiesto andre du toit

let’s get into the dancehall of it all🔥🪩🎉

“First created in Buddies’ Young Creators Unit, and further developed with the Anitafrika Method for @whynottheatreto RISER (where it garnered five Dora nominations, including for outstanding production, outstanding new play, and outstanding performer), speaking of sneaking returns to the Buddies stage for a full production this fall, sept 19 - oct 1"
