Experience a special evening with internationally-renowned environmentalists David Suzuki and Tara Cullis in What You Won’t Do For Love, a unique and intimate theatre experience that asks whether the love we have for each other can inspire us to take action for the planet. Actors and real-life couple Miriam Fernandes and Sturla Alvsvaag navigate a poetic and playful dialogue on stage with David and Tara, who have been a couple for five decades. Through honest reflection and lively conversation, David and Tara share powerful insights and captivating stories garnered over a lifetime of environmental activism and the deep bond of their partnership. Why Not Theatre Founded in 2007, Why Not Theatre is a Toronto-based theatre company with an international scope. Why Not’s work exists at the intersection of art, innovation and social change. For 18 years, Why Not has developed and supported 55 new works that have toured to 83 stops across 40 cities and 11 countries, including the world-wide hit A Brimful of Asha, performed more than 300 times around the world, and the critically acclaimed Mahabharata. Why Not has an international reputation for creating cutting-edge, cross-cultural theatre, and for facilitating opportunities for underrepresented artists. Why Not Theatre is led by Co-Artistic Directors Miriam Fernandes and Ravi Jain and Executive Director Karen Tisch. “A deeply personal, totally enchanting love story. David and Tara take us on a magical journey into the heart of commitment – to one another, to family, to community, to justice and to the planet. A testament to hope.” – Maude Barlow (Author and activist, founding member of the Council of Canadians, co-founder of the Blue Planet Project) “Warm, wise and overflowing with generosity, this is a love story so epic it embraces all of creation. Yet another reminder of how blessed we are to be in the struggle with elders like David and Tara.” – Naomi Klein (author, journalist, social activist, and filmmaker) and Avi Lewis (filmmaker, climate activist, educator)
