Up next…

Join us on our next stop on the National First Métis Man of Odesa Tour March 18-21, 2027 at RCA St. John’s.

Based on true events, this moving love story unfolds against the twin backdrops of the recent pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Award-winning playwright Matthew MacKenzie and acclaimed Ukrainian actor Mariya Khomutova not only created the piece — they also perform it themselves, bringing their own story of pandemic courtship to life on stage and offering an intimate lens on love, separation, and war.

Tender, thoughtful, and quietly uplifting, this award-winning Canadian work bridges time, distance, and borders. We are honoured to open the Theatre Calgary season and start our National Tour with this beautiful story in the Martha Cohen Theatre.

Written By Matthew MacKenzie and Mariya Khomutova
