Where the Blood Mixes
SNTC's 2011/2012 theatre season concludes with this 2009 Govenor General Award Winning Play. This poignant work is a humorous, moving portrayal of three middle aged residential school survivors dealing with loss and the return of a long estranged daughter. This play exposes the shadows beneath the surface of the author's First Nations heritage and celebrates its survivors. It demonstrates the healing power of stories in a reserve community, and puts faith in the youth for hope for the future. Note: There is a Language Warning
Presented by SNTC.

FILL THESE HEARTS: God, Sex and the Universal Longing
An Evening of Beauty & Reflection on John Paul II's 'Theology of the Body' with Christopher West and Mike Mangione & the Union. Join renowned speaker and author Christopher West and indie-folk act Mike Mangione & the Union for an evening of beauty and reflection through Theology of the Body —a bold, organic and contemporary understanding of human love in the divine plan. Like a great work of art, the Theology of the Body puts a finger on the pulse of our universal aches and longings—the universal questions of our humanity. In a journey through art, music and spoken presentation, come to a new depth of understanding about sexuality and how it illuminates life's deepest questions.
Presented by Christopher West.

Amati Quartet
Haydn- String Quartet in C major, Op. 74, No. 1 (1793)
Tavener – Ikon of Joy / Sorrow (1999)
Beethoven- String Quartet Op. 59, No. 3 in C major (1806)
After a scintillating dance through Haydn at his best in his opus 74 No. 2 - allow the inner stillness and timelessness of Tavener`s spiritual music to mesmerize you. 'Ikon of Joy/Sorrow' is a meditation on Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' composed in 1999 by the British composer John Tavener. For the season finale much is owed to the wealthy patron of the arts and Russian Ambassador to Vienna, Count Rasumovsky, who in 1806 commissioned the three monumental string quartets of opus 59 by Beethoven. Composed after Beethoven was faced with his personal crisis of deafness and had triumphed over his ensuing depression the tremendous third quartet finishes with a fugue – the crowning glory of a somewhat autobiographical group of quartets.

Don Pasquale
A little bit of romance, a dash of deceit and a whole lot of buffa. Donizetti's light and graceful music weaves its magic through this timeless 19th century comedy. The entertaining plot, with its fits of temper, mistaken identities and general comic confusion, is touched with deeper feelings. Donizetti raises this opera above the level of mere amusement, and achieves the delicate balance of pathos and buffoonery.
