Venue165 Front Street East
Step into a powerful theatrical journey with *Jordan*, a production that blends magical realism with vital Canadian history. Playing at 165 Front Street East in Old Toronto, the story follows a young Cree boy navigating space and time with his faithful spirit bear, Maskwa. While the stagecraft is enchanting, the heart of the performance lies in paying tribute to a true national hero: Jordan River Anderson of Norway House Cree Nation, Manitoba.
The Story and Significance
Young Jordan's medical challenges sparked a massive national movement, ultimately leading to the establishment of Jordan’s Principle—a legal commitment designed to ensure equal and immediate healthcare access for First Nations youth. This play captures that fight for equity, justice, and community with warmth, creativity, and deep reverence.
