A Public Display of Affection (Toronto)

Mixing history, comedy, and poignant reflection in equal measure, A Public Display of Affection created and performed by Jonathan Wilson excavates the lives, loves, and landmarks of Wilson’s life as a queer teenager in Toronto.

Deftly inhabiting a cavalcade of characters, Wilson leads us on a wry and intimate exploration of the Village he once knew, the legacy it created, and the future being forged by a new generation.

In the show, Wilson (The Lion King, The Normal Heart, Gay for Pay with Blake & Clay), a Second City veteran and Dora Award-winning actor has crafted a bracing companion piece to his Dora-nominated, playwriting debut, My Own Private Oshawa.

The show runs from March 25 to April 20 in the Crow’s Theatre’s Studio Theatre at Streetcar Crowsnest (345 Carlaw Ave., Toronto). Tickets are available now at CrowsTheatre.com.
