Events Description
The beloved Canadian story of buried family secrets.
Ann-Marie MacDonald’s epic novel of family, faith, and buried history comes to the stage in Hannah Moscovitch and Alisa Palmer’s intimate adaptation.
In Cape Breton, at the turn of the last century, a young piano tuner and the daughter of immigrants defy convention to build a life together. From their union grows a volatile household shaped by faith, ambition, and the transformative power of music. When their daughter’s extraordinary voice offers a path to greatness, dreams of success carry her from a small coastal community to the electrifying cultural awakening of New York and Harlem.
Presented in two parts and spanning generations, Fall on Your Knees follows the Piper family, haunted by secrets, tragedy, and forbidden love.
A Crow’s Theatre and Vita Brevis Arts Co-production in Association with Nightwood Theatre
