April 24-May 10, 2025


In the fall of 1918, the town of Unity, Saskatchewan is celebrating the end of World War One and the return of its young soldiers. However, the resilience of the town is tested as a new and unexpected challenge emerges. Kevin Kerr's award-winning play, Unity (1918), is a painfully funny work of moving familiarity, hope in the midst of loss, and how this small farming community faces the impossible.
