Synopsis
Residents from Toronto’s most notorious intersection find themselves backed into a dystopian corner by ‘the
man’. Armed with art, a conscience and the echoes of Arab Spring, they must decide whether to run, hide,
stand their ground or come out fighting. KNOWN TO POLICE is a celebration of the vibrancy, resilience and
swag of a community that finds itself on the wrong side of society’s “you are either with us or against us”
speech. (youngpeoplestheatre.ca)
