In Shadows, a visually stunning theatre piece that uses multiple art forms and stories, confronts the issues that bring darkness into our lives with playful humour and youthful energy.

DON'T MISS this original performance collaboratively created by 55 children and youth, plus 12 of Toronto's finest theatre artists, musicians and visual artists, gathering daily at the Children's Peace Theatre for the 9th annual Summer Peace Camp. Performed at the beautiful amphitheatre in the woods at 305 Dawes Road, all the ideas for In Shadows come from the young people themselves, aided by input from the professional artists as well as from several outside visitors, including a First Nations storyteller, an advocate for migrant workers, and experts in the physiology of vision and shadow puppetry.

David Miller said of a previous Gala, "This one-of-a-kind theatrical event celebrates the neighbourhoods of Crescent Town and the Peace Theatre's commitment to address aggression and violence in our lives and communities."
