Theatre Transit and Hillhurst United Church are pleased to present “8”, a one-night only reading of Academy Award Winning screenwriter, Dustin Lance Black’s documentary play chronicling the US federal lawsuit for marriage equality. Featuring a cast of professional actors, emerging artists, and members of the queer community, our production of “8” will benefit Camp fYrefly, Canada’s only national leadership retreat for LGBTQ and allied youth. Following the performance there will be a talkback with members of the cast and LGBTQ community, lead by playwright and activist Pam Rocker. This will mark “8”‘s premiere in Alberta.
