Verdigris

By Kinsey Hollis and Directed by Dean Fleming

April 28 to May 3, 2025

Play description

When a woman “accidentally” swallows the seed from an ancient tree and falls pregnant, her life and reality begin to change, forever. Three hundred years in the past, a young woman and her lover fight to survive amidst the dangers of impending armed conflict. Connecting through time and place, the two women struggle to live in changing worlds—and a force of nature bigger than they can understand struggles alongside them.

Tickets // PAY-WHAT-YOU-CAN

Tickets will be available in 2025. Stay tuned!

At the National Theatre School of Canada, we believe that theatre should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we are introducing a pay-what-you-can ticketing system, allowing everyone to attend our productions regardless of their financial situation.

Audiences can choose from five ticket categories based on what best suits their circumstances. Each ticket purchased not only supports our programs, but also helps make the theatre more inclusive and accessible to everyone.

The available rates are as follows:

  • Accessible ($5): Designed for students and individuals with low incomes.
  • Reduced ($10): Created for those under 30, over 65, and live performance professionals.
  • Regular ($20): Standard price for access to shows.
  • Solidarity ($40): To help make reduced-price tickets available to others.
  • Impact ($80): To show your commitment to supporting emerging theatre talent.

Each ticket purchased not only supports our programs, but also helps make the theatre more inclusive and accessible to everyone.
