safeword

safeword is a brand new independent theatre company focused on producing original Canadian plays that embrace controversy, rawness and realism. Our objective is to faciliate, through the medium of theatre, a forum of philosophical discussion and critical thought surrounding issues that are relevant to modern society.

In role-playing fantasies, participants are often obliged to create a 'safe word' which is used only when the actions in the scene border too far into reality. Our company is interesting in pushing our limits into these untrodden territories and challenging our audiences to ask themselves which words are 'safe' and which ones are still out of bounds.

turtleneck

turtleneck is a play about sex addiction, pornography, gender roles and the exploration of human limitations. It's about Vicki, a recovering sex addict who befriends Darcy, a rehabiliation worker. But when she accidently gets introduced to Darcy's volatile sex-obsessed older brother, a spiraling chain of events occurs which threatens her new life and everyone around her.

This is a play that will horrify you, haunt you, tantalize you, tickle you, mock you, shock you and rock your socks off! You'll want to see it just so you can talk about it afterwards. A play that's wildly entertaining, fall-on-the-floor funny, deeply moving and an all-around thrilling experience. You won't want to miss it.
