City of Toronto All Events http://ift.tt/1UeaYk4 t's the Morkan sisters' annual dinner party and dance on the feast of the Epiphany, Dublin, 1904. Their nephew Gabriel is tasked with making a speech to bring the year to a close, but words of the living and thoughts of the dead threaten his resolve. In this Workshop Presentation based on James Joyce's short story The Dead, Soulpepper Academy playwright Anthony MacMahon crafts a look into Joyce's implied or unexplored narratives between Gabriel and his friends and family. In this original adaptation, the music of speech, and the poetry of music expose the story's central themes of identity, fate and belonging. Anthony MacMahon. Adapted from The Dead by James Joyce
