Title
Working People's Picture Show
Description
The Working People's Picture Show was a play based on skits developed by the Company of Sirens that toured across Ontario. Pictured are Aida Jordan and Cynthia Grant.
The Whole Loaf Theatre (1976-1995) was founded by Sara Barker and David Anderson to develop upon popular theatre forms for shows in public spaces. Their shows were motivated by their progressive political views. Between 1976-1980 Sara and David fought for and won a precedent-setting right to perform on the streets and in the parks of Toronto.
