Tip of the Iceberg

Gordon and Archie have been friends for over 70 years, living and working in the remote fishing village of Murphy’s Harbour, Newfoundland.

Through some internet research, Archie believes that he has figured out a way to physically reclaim his vigor.

All that remains is the key ingredient to this elixir: Glacial ice.

Gordon decides to join his mate for an excursion out to sea, where a large iceberg is drifting a few miles offshore.

‍Tip of the Iceberg is a story of friendship. It is filled to the brim with original folk music and laughter and projects an inspiring message of “It’s never too late.”

What is Theatre for Young Audiences?

We believe theatre is a powerful tool. It dramatizes and contextualizes the world. It invites us to walk in other’s shoes; see the world through their eyes.

All of our Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA) shows are grounded in the Ontario curriculum; they teach, through theatre.

Bonus: we hire educators to create study packages, so your classroom can get the most out of the experience.
