Toronto premiere
Presented in english and spanish
Part theatre and part social intervention, Boca del Lupo’s Red Phone is an audience-to-audience performance that utilizes the intimacy of a phone call and the technology of a teleprompter. Two at a time, audience members partake in a five-minute dialogue about some of today’s big questions as written by a prominent Canadian playwright.
For RUTAS, new scripts by Keith Barker and Susanna Fournier have been commissioned by Aluna Theatre to join Red Phone’s canon. Both these pieces will also be available to experience in spanish.
