Description

Labrador is about a part of the world that practically no one knows anything about — Canada's own Siberia. And because your tour guide is the lovely and talented TJ Dawe, it's also about the cycle of generations, how the hell bread got invented, the blurry line between fact and fiction, why schedule needs to be pronounced with a k sound, and how aliens and archaeologists are the same.

Editorial Reviews

All Dawe’s considerable talents . . . are on display in this quirky new one-man show about his adventures, both real and imagined, as part of a touring children’s show in a part of Canada about which very few of us know anything. —Toronto Sun
