SUMMARY:VIOLETTE
DESCRIPTION:May 12 to 30\, 2021 – VIOLETTE – Theatre and Virtual Reality.\nViolette welcomes you into her world. She lets you enter the privacy of her room\, and then of her imagination. Only you. Step into her place as into the home of a friend; put on your VR headset; see a universe of snow and forest materialize in front of your eyes; become the sole witness to Violette’s untold story\, both magical and tragic. \nCreated and produced by JOE JACK & JOHN\, with Stephanie Boghen and Tamara Brown.\nSince its inception 17 years ago\, JOE JACK & JOHN’s goal has been to bring forward marginalised voices (collaborating with actors living with intellectual disability) and to make audiences reflect on current issues.\nVIOLETTE breaks down barriers while addressing a reality experienced by too many intellectually disabled women. During their lifetime\, between 70 % and 90% are victims of sexual abuse.

SUMMARY:Strange Futures Book Club: Triangulum
DESCRIPTION:VIRTUAL MEETING VIA ZOOM\nMeeting ID : 822 3587 6731\nPasscode : 882691 \nThe Strange Futures book club focuses on sci-fi and speculative fiction by QT/BIPOC writers. “Strange Futures” speaks to the unknown worlds that are to come–but also to the strangeness that is ascribed to marginalized voices\, and how such strangeness can actually be generative\, challenging\, discomforting\, and revolutionary.

Join us for the discussion! \nWhere and How Can I purchase the book?\nFind the book here: https://bit.ly/3vgvEgx \nMore info on our webstore here:\nhttp://mtl.drawnandquarterly.com/posts/webstore-faq\nWe Ship Canada-wide! \nBy purchasing your book at Librairie Drawn & Quarterly you help support events like this one\, independent publishing and retailing\, our neighborhood\, and authors both local and from around the world who depend on independent bookstores for their livelihood.
