[Image description: An East-Asian woman with dark brown hair stands smiling, with her hands spread wide. The audience quote is on the left.]
Synopsis:
"Using Mandarin and English, Jade Circle follows Jasmine, a second-generation Canadian who has lost her mother tongue. Through intimate interviews with her mother and using music, movement, and storytelling, Jasmine finds her place within the legacy of her matriarchs. As she learns Mandarin, she unearths the lost stories of her grandmother’s past.
Jade Circle is a love letter to matrilineal relationships. It’s a profound longing for and acknowledgement of where we’ve come from. Jasmine invites memory, ancestry, and culture into the room in a ceremony of the things we’ve lost that we might still name and regain.
A solo show that is a feast for the senses."
On stage through May 10th - get tickets at.

Next year's gifts of comedy, exhilaration, wildness, and poignancy are waiting to unfold. We say gifts because assembling this lineup of shows has been like putting together a selection of gifts designed to delight; sparkling offerings that will gather us together to laugh, think, and share joyful and profound experiences in community.
GCTC’s 26-27 Subscription Season at a Glance:
Rogers v. Rogers | October 20 - November 1, 2026
Liars at a Funeral | December 1 - 13, 2026
Hurricane Diane | February 9 - 21, 2027
Age is a Feeling | April 6 - 18 2027
Waiting for Godot - Inuktitut | May
“Our 26-27 Season is a season as large as life, “ says Artistic Director Sarah Kitz. “We scale down to the intimate mysteries of one human life on earth, and we scale up to the gods. We’re looking at a dynastic 1% family melting down in public, and we’re looking at the experience of Inuit waiting endlessly in the North.”
“Next season features bigger shows with more artists, more spectacle, and more comedy. Making art is a distinctly human action and produces powerful visions of what we can do together. So let’s gather, share laughter and complexity, beauty and ideas, and invest in a shared future for everyone.”
