The Arts Review

 

Adapted from the master of fantastical realism, Gabriel García Márquez’s darkly comic tale, brought to the stage for children and adults to share.

 

In a kitchen, in a theatre, two storytellers and their audience find something remarkable — a very old man with enormous wings.

 

The wise neighbour woman tells us he’s an angel.

The priest says he’s an imposter.

Pilgrims flock to see him, hoping to be healed by him, hoping for a gawp.

 

They leave with something different than what they expected.

Don’t miss this incredible play in Toronto for a short time.
