Two strangers. One painting. An exploration of connection, reflection, and the power of shared experience.
Winner of the 2025 “Best in Series” at the Fringe Festival, this must-see play unfolds against the mesmerizing backdrop of Lawren Harris’s Grey Day in Town (1923/1930), one of the AGH’s most beloved Collection works.

In this intimate setting, a shared moment in front of a painting becomes something more—an invitation to reflect, connect, and consider the quiet power of fleeting encounters. At its heart, the performance asks: can a brief experience, sparked by art, carry meaning beyond the gallery walls?
The performance will be followed by a conversation with the creative team.
