Preview: OBAABERIMA at Buddies


Opening tonight at one of our favourite theatre's in the city is a piece co-created by our girl Evalyn Parry. It sounds truly moving and incredibly candid.

Show Description:

Imprisoned in Canada for committing a violent crime, a young man from Ghana tells his cellmates a story on the eve of his release. Although there is great risk in sharing his tale, he must tell it to be truly free. Through storytelling, dance, and live music, Obaaberima chronicles a young African-Canadian’s journey across continents, genders, races, and sexualities.
