This year for International Women’s Day, we are proud to uplift and amplify the voices of the women featured in the upcoming show Strawberries and Peaches: A TD Black History Month Cabaret. This virtual show was curated by local artist Lemba (Misha Maseka) to celebrate the complex grace that is Black femininity.
This February, Arts Commons Presents: TD Amplify Cabarets return! Each of these popular cabaret-style performances feature a different cast of amazing local talent that have inspired, challenged, and energized audiences with dance, music, poetry, and performance art in the intimate space of the Engineered Air Theatre. As with so many events right now, this first presentation of the TD Amplify Cabaret series, Strawberries & Peaches will feel a little different, streamed virtually direct to your home rather than live in the theatre.
