A part of the HST ON-SCREEN PROGRAM. The show has been recorded and will play in the new cinema lounge in Ruby's at Holden Street Theatres.

“The tone of Cantata is approximately two parts absurd hilarity and one part potent loneliness” — The Georgia Straight

“Soulfully sweet… an exquisite tightrope between humour and sadness” — North Shore News

“Craigslist combines such relevance, humour and poignancy with such a strong score that it is sure to go on to a long life within Canada and abroad” — Stage Door
