Q

A new play transports audiences from Barrie to England — literally

The Curious Voyage is an immersive three-day theatre event that flies its audience between cities, from the streets of Barrie, Ont., to London, England.
(Talk Is Free Theatre)

The Curious Voyage is a new play that's challenging everything that audiences expect from theatre. The play begins on the streets of Barrie, Ont., and ends in London, England — audiences actually have to fly between the two cities.

Carly Maga is a theatre critic for the Toronto Star and she's actually going on The Curious Voyage, which starts today. She talked to q host Tom Power before she left to help paint a picture of how the play works.
