One for Sorrow, Two for Joy at cSPACE Marda Loop

Monday 11 March 2024 - In this enchanting prairie story, one woman braves adversity and befriends unlikely companions. We explore the remarkable life of a resilient and tenacious woman, Willow Mae O’Reilly, born in 1894 in Calgary, Alberta. She spent her lonely childhood on the wind swept prairies and rolling foothills of her grandparents' farm where her imagination and feet were free to run. One For Sorrow, Two For Joy has over 30 hand crafted puppets and an original musical score making this show an extravaganza of music and puppetry! The performance on Tuesday, March 12th will be followed by a talkback with the artists. Tuesday March 12th, 2024 | 6:30 PM - 8:15 PM Wednesday March 13th, 2024 | 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM Thursday March 14th, 2024 | 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM - Event Details
