Luminato
(June 7–18) Various locations

Putting the “Hi, how are ya?” in highbrow, Luminato seeks to bring highbrow to the masses with free and ticketed events offering experimental theatre, avant-garde art and, some years, environmental installations. This year’s productions include: Scott Joplin’s Treemonisha, Aalaapi, and Nuit along with two long-anticipated world premieres: Dragon’s Tale and Loss. Today, Luminato also features the Canadian premiere of global phenomenon The Walk (Little Amal). Little Amal is a 12-foot puppet of a 10-year-old Syrian refugee, who has travelled through 13 countries to 90 cities. She arrives in Toronto on June 7 and will walk across the region for five days, looking for hope and her new home. She will be welcomed by musicians, dancers, children and elders, civic leaders, community organizers, newcomers and fellow refugees (and, possibly, you) in a journey of art and hope.
