WORLD PREMIERE

Guild Festival Theatre is excited to announce that The Veil by Keith Barker and Thomas Morgan Jones, developed through GFT's In Conversations With Classics Workshop, will premiere at Crow's Theatre as part of their 2025/2026 Season. 

Inspired by classic horror writers like Edgar Allan Poe and Shirley Jackson, this haunting new work tells the tale of a high-powered lawyer who inherits a sinister curse. As every terrible deed he’s ever committed stirs to life and lurks just beyond his sight, reality blurs into nightmare and The Veil spirals into a pulse-quickening race against time.

The Veil was developed through In Conversation With Classics, Guild Festival Theatre's program for new plays.

Based in Toronto’s East End, Crow’s Theatre at Streetcar Crowsnest is an anchor performing arts hub in Toronto’s east end, forging a new and adventurous audience for live art in the heart of one of Toronto’s most dynamic neighbourhoods.

GFT audiences may be familiar with recent Crow’s Theatre productions such as The Master Plan, Uncle Vanya, 15 Dogs, and Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 which have been enjoyed by audiences across Toronto and beyond, and have had further lives at Mirvish, Soulpepper, Theatre Aquarius, and the Segal Centre.

Founded in 1994, Thought For Food is a Toronto-based company that creates work exploring overt theatricality, an interest in performer/audience relationships, and an emphasis on spontaneous or random elements.
