It's a dance piece. It's a support group. It's a worldview.

Performer: Jessie Garon
Creative Consultant: Katherine Duncanson
Directorial Assistance : John Turner
This production is supported by generous contributions from The Toronto Arts Council, The Lindy Green Family Foundation and the KM Hunter Foundation.

Big, wide and deep Thank You to DAVVI Centre for Performing Arts in Hammerfest, Norway and all those supporting the development of "Hello Sunshine!"
We had an incredibly rich and productive time during our three weeks residency in the dark of Norway's December. The show continues to grow as I navigate the terrain of stories I have long held in the dark and wrestling with how to bring hard things to light.
Ever grateful to my collaborators Katherine Duncanson, Linnea Swan, Stephen Joffe, Elaine Whittaker, Rebecca Picherack, Jessie Garon and Nina Milanovski for their indefatigable support. No solo happens alone.
Stay tuned for more news. Like many large things, the work is taking time to grow. I look forward to sharing it with you all in a coming season.
Thanks especially to The Lindy Green Family Foundation and the Canada Council for the Arts | Conseil des arts du Canada for their ongoing support.
