MISSION STATEMENT

The goals of the annual ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ Classics Play are simple: to give our Classics students a new perspective on material that they usually only experience as written texts in the classroom, to give non-Classics students an opportunity to experience ancient drama, and to provide a space for the exchange of art and ideas around Greek texts in our Montreal community.

FUNDRAISING INITIATIVE

The ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ Classics Play is a non-profit venture committed to giving Montreal university students a unique educational experience, while fostering cultural exchanges with our Montreal community around ancient texts.ÌýIn the future we'd like to offer free shows and free performance and translation workshops open to the community, and to bring in guest speakers for public lectures on Classical drama and performance. Any support you can give in helping us reach these goals is so appreciated. You can donate directly to the ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ Classics Play , and you will automatically receive a tax receipt for your donation. Thank you for supporting the ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ Classics Play!

The ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ Classics Play is a member of the Quebec Drama Federation, and its community partner, Oimoi Productions, is a member of the Freestanding Room.
