Taking on Water is on tour!
Taking on Water is coming to your town this month! 🌊
A musical play, Taking on Water tells the real stories of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians on the coast – tales of challenge, boundless optimism, and some things stranger than fiction. By pairing these stories with musical performances by violin and piano duo Duo Concertante, the play gives us a new way to think about love, risk, and resilience on the edge of the ocean.
