The company will be at Playwright’s Workshop Montreal from August 9th to August 15th. On Sunday August 15th, we invite the public in for an open rehearsal of our new work-in-progress. In this new creation, we explore the human situation of feeling trapped with no way out: moments when one is disillusioned and doesn’t know what to believe anymore. Obviously, one doesn’t stay stuck forever. Something changes.

STO Union Upcoming Tours
For our friends in Scandinavia, we will be visiting you with our play “7 Important Things”(a STO Union and National Arts Centre English Theatre co-production) in February and March 2011. For those of you that have inquired about our workshops, we will be offering at least one workshop while on this tour. More details on the tour and workshop locations, to come in the fall.
STO Union and Earle’s Hall
Earle’s Hall is the stunning little theatre situated above one of our favorite hang-outs, Kaffe 1870, right in the heart of Wakefield, Quebec. Built in 1870, the theatre is one of the very few remaining of its kind in North America. STO Union moved into the theatre in early 2009. Last year, we asked you to support us as we lobbied to get Earle’s Hall recognized in the village Urban Plan. Earle’s Hall made it into the draft plan which is currently being revised. Realistically, there is not much more that can be done until other major projects in the area that are currently underway are completed. At that point, it will depend on public will … or if someone out there has a couple of million dollars they’d like to donate… It is our hope that we can, at the very least, start a discussion on this historically significant theatre, and, in extension, all of Wakefield’s historical architecture.
