WELCOME This stage version of Ann-Marie MacDonald’s beloved Canadian classic, Fall On Your Knees comes to us after an extensive, cross-country tour – making stops in Toronto, Halifax, and Ottawa. After touching the hearts and minds of audiences across the nation, we proudly welcome this company to the Grand as they share their final performances with us and complete their epic stage journey.

You will find that “epic” is a word that is often used to describe this production. And, for good reason. Everything about this production is, in fact, epic: the story, which is so vast that it must be shared over two performances; the multitude of large theatre companies involved; and the extraordinary gathering of artists from coast to coast. In

so many ways, this production is an incredible feat. But, more than that, it is a true testament to what can be accomplished when we come together in the name of artistic creation.

After years of development and much anticipation, we are thrilled that you have joined us – in person – to experience this historic show. Whether this is your first encounter with the Piper family of Nova Scotia, or the tenth, we hope that this grand adventure transports you, surprises you, and reminds you of the strength of family – by blood or by choice – and the power of the arts!

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT We are thrilled to welcome you back to the Grand Theatre, where we operate on the traditional lands of the Attawandaron (also known as Neutral) peoples and territories associated with various treaties of the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, and Lunaapewak. The Attawandaron peoples once settled this region alongside the Algonquin and Haudenosaunee peoples and used this land as their traditional beaver hunting grounds.

In London, our treaties include the 1796 London Township Treaty and the 1822 Longwoods Treaty. The London Township Treaty was a regional treaty signed by diplomats representing all parties living on the land, which today we know as southwestern Ontario. The Longwoods Treaty was signed by representatives of the Crown and the Chippewas of the Thames First Nation and covers approximately 580,000 acres in the area.

Locally, there are three First Nations Communities. They are the Chippewas of the Thames First Nation, the Oneida Nation of the Thames, and the Munsee Delaware Nation. We would also like to recognize the growing Indigenous urban population, comprised of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people.

We value the significant historical and contemporary contributions of local and regional First Nations, and all of the Original Peoples of Turtle Island (also known as North America), and acknowledge the traditional lands upon which we operate.

About Vita Brevis Arts Vita Brevis Arts (VBA) was founded by Alisa Palmer to support the development of theatre projects that are ambitious in scope, urgent in content and that have the capacity to speak to a wide range of audiences in a highly theatrical and sensually rich language. Inclusive and artistically excellent storytelling is at the heart of VBA’s mission.

In practice, VBA partners with established theatre companies to curate artist-driven development processes outside traditional models.

Past credits include the development for: Fall on Your Knees, Hamlet 911.

Artistic Producer Alisa Palmer Managing Producer Paul Beauchamp Board of Directors Paul Beauchamp, Elaine Calder, Alisa Palmer Fall On Your Knees - Stage Adaptation was developed under the auspices of Vita Brevis Arts over a period of 10 years through the generous support of The National Arts Centre and the National Creation Fund, The Canada Council for the Arts, the Toronto Arts Council, The Citadel Theatre, The Shaw Festival, New York Theatre Workshop and Mirvish Productions. The Development and Premiere Production were directed by Alisa Palmer.

VBA would like to thank the many talented individuals whose generosity and commitment made this project possible. VBA offers special thanks to Ann-Marie MacDonald for her insights, her ongoing support and for her inspiring novel.

Special thanks to Jeanine Tesori and Reza Jacobs for their inspired and inspiring musical guidance; to Patricia Cerra for helping shape the artistic development; and to David Abel for his role in guiding VBA.

DIRECTOR'S NOTES Like so many readers, I remember where I was when I read Fall On Your Knees because I remember the effect the novel had on me.

As a young, queer, gender non-conforming person, born and raised on the East Coast into a family whose tree included immigrants, settlers, secrets, and surprises, I was moved and inspired by the novel; I felt seen by the story and stirred by the hope that lay in the characters’ reckoning with truth – however searing.

As a theatre maker, I was struck by what I recognized as an inherently theatrical engine driving the novel; I could see, hear and feel the worlds that MacDonald created. I was inspired to explore a theatrical adaptation because I knew that this voice, which continued to speak and sing in my imagination long after I set the book down, would speak and sing as powerfully to an audience. I’m grateful that Ann-Marie (who is, full disclosure, one of my most frequent artistic collaborators and also my wife) allowed me to try.

I have had the good fortune to assemble a remarkable team of artists. Over the past ten years, Vita Brevis Arts, my company with producers Paul Beauchamp and Patricia Cerra, with the support of incredible theatre companies and artistic leaders, has shepherded the project through a development process designed to listen to the voice of the novel; to explore the material and discover the style of the piece. My first artistic partner in this endeavour was Hannah Moscovitch, who had not only the talent and vision but also the courage and stamina to take it on. I want to thank all the gifted artists who have joined the project during this process and whose brilliant work you experience on stage today.

The shared dream of our artistic team was to bring to the stage the dynamic of the

novel; its sweep of love and ambition; its page-turning suspense; the deep relationships that readers develop with characters who are flawed, gifted, and often wounded.

All this, along with the sheer delight of a story animated by music and passion and ultimately love.

When it came out, the novel Fall On Your Knees was immediately remarkable for the lesbian love story at its heart but as time has gone on, the long overdue reckoning with racism and abuses of power in our society has rendered other veins in the novel more urgent than ever. In the twenty-five years since I first read it, my children have grown up, my parents have passed away, and both my perspective and our world have shifted. In light of the increasing vulnerability of so many of our communities, the larger embrace of the novel’s story of family, both chosen and biological, is all the more poignant and powerful.

Fall On Your Knees is above all a story of passion – for life, for love, for truth and ultimately for redemption. Redemption is possible only when the truth has been acknowledged and shared. Ann-Marie has been quoted as saying that it’s a happy ending when at least one person has survived to tell the tale. Our theatrical version is inspired by the healing power of storytelling in its most enduring form, the shared circle. The circle crosses cultures and eras, and its invitation to bear witness is not only extended to a community, it also creates community. Thus, in one of the oldest forms of theatre we find the heart of our piece’s offer of hope for the future. alisa palmer

Celebrate a Maritime tradition and an authentically Nova Scotian experience!

East Coast Kitchen Party, originally titled The Argyle Street Kitchen Party, offers an authentically Nova Scotian experience. It’s a concert celebration set in a kitchen, where the instruments come out, and friends start to play some of the best music that the East Coast has to offer. Each performance will see the stunning cast of Maritimers, joined by an outstanding lineup of London, Ontario musicians, who will drop in to give the party a very local flavour.

This is the perfect opportunity to grab your friends and family, raise a glass, and celebrate the music that defines us – and the music that binds us.
