MOTHER'S DAUGHTER, the third and final installment of playwright Kate Hennig's 'Queenmaker Trilogy' had its world premiere at the Stratford Festival's Studio Theatre Friday night. The play follows the reign of Mary I Queen of England and like the two previous instalments, it is reimagined (or perhaps 'restored') to be told from the perspective of the women at the centre of the story. Directed by Alan Dilworth, this production provides a fitting end to the intimate story of tradition, family, faith, imperfection and sisterhood that audiences first became immersed in 4 years ago.

After a hugely successful debut season, podcasters and showgirls Kyla Musselman and Jennifer Thiessen are returning with an all-new season of Tits and Teeth Podcast. 'The response to Season 1 was overwhelming,' says Thiessen. 'When we started out, it was really just a fun way to showcase Canada's amazing theatre artists. But, in between the banter, we were having really important conversations.' 'We had no idea how people would respond to issues that go hand in hand with the theatre industry,' says Musselman, 'but talking to working artists about things like parenthood, wages, and equality became an accidental focus for the season. Finding out how much it meant to people inspired us to continue.'
