Lauren Gunderson’s play will be presented in Edmonton.
Shadow Theatre will present THE REVOLUTIONISTS by Lauren Gunderson from March 18 through April 5, 2026 at the Varscona Theatre in Edmonton. The production is directed by John Hudson.

Gunderson’s play blends history and fiction while exploring themes of revolution, friendship, and political upheaval.
The cast includes Aimée Beaudoin, Alexandra Dawkins, Kijo Gatama, and Jacquelin Walters.
