"★★★★
There are moments of growth and utter despair, of coming to grips with family, community and self.  It's occasionally quite funny, just like life.​"
-Brent Wittmeier, Edmonton Journal
(Un)Known Stories
collectively devised
​August 13-24, 2015

(Un)Known Stories was the pilot production of In Arms Theatre, and premiered at the 2015 Edmonton International Fringe Festival.

(Un)Known Stories was born out of a desire to share our hidden stories.  After a series of storytelling workshops, (Un)Known Stories was written in a collaborative effort between Makram (Matt) Ayache, Ashleigh Hicks, Liam Salmon, and Gianmarco Visconti.  The script was continuously reworked with the acting team throughout the rehearsal process.  The final result manifests itself in a series of short snapshots into the lives of a few queer people.  

See life-long friendships navigate into new romantic territory. Laugh at the unexpected turns of a crush.  Explore the narratives of queer folks as they reconcile their faith and sexuality.  And learn about love, regret, loss, and fear as you listen to our (Un)Known Stories.
