In Ann Mortifee’s JUNO Award-nominated family musical, four unlikely friends go in search of a cure for a sleeping sickness that has overtaken their town. When they follow the clues left by a magical man, they encounter the mysterious manipulator, Opia.
As she tries to stop their journey, Gabby, Reverend Blinkers, Feathertoes, and Sufferton rise to the challenge learning more about what friendship truly means. Opia’s minions, Wayless and Nimbleknees join the games, confusing things even more.

Our Place in the World
The Firehall is where my family’s stories began to be told again.

We’re Grateful to Be Here.

The Firehall Arts Centre is located on the unceded and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) First Nations where they lived and gathered together for thousands of years. Acknowledging their connections to these lands is a significant part of what the Firehall considers when choosing the productions and presentations we undertake and how that work shapes and impacts those around us. We ask our community to reflect on what being present here means to you and those around you.
