Derived from dozens of real-life interviews with Black folk tucked away on the countryside, Shayna Jones’s Black & Rural weaves a story of vulnerability, quiet triumph, and striking humanity about what matters to Black Canadian lives. Shayna’s unique storytelling voice harmonizes with new folkloric tales and verbatim reflections from her interviewees.

The culmination of Shayna Jones's multi-year theatrical and journalistic investigation, Black & Rural digs deep into the lives and hearts of Black Canadians living in the countryside. Led by playwright and performer Shayna's own experiences of small-town and remote living, Black & Rural intersperses the voices of real interviewees with music and generative mythology about Black life in agrarian communities.
For its 39th season, Pacific Theatre returns to in-theatre performance with a two-part slate featuring existential comedies, challenging dramas, and live music.
