canadian Art as Safe Ground?

Produced in association with:

Arts Partner Logo

Deepa Mehta, Anna Porter, and Judith Thomson discuss the vital role of storytelling in society.


Does storytelling provide a safe space in which to tackle challenging subjects? What conditions are required for such a space to exist—and how successfully are those conditions met in Canada?

Anna Porter, founder of Key Porter Books and author of The Ghosts of Europe and Kasztner's Train, filmmaker Deepa Mehta (Bollywood/Hollywood, and the “Elements Trilogy"), and playwright Judith Thompson (Palace of the End, Capture Me) share excerpts from their work and consider these questions in relation to their own storytelling arts.

Moderated by Steve Paikin, host of TVO's The Agenda.

Ticket prices are inclusive of all taxes and handling fees.
