Ottawa Launch of Heartlines: A Love Story

Help us celebrate the book launch of Heartlines: A Love Story by Sarah Waisvisz! Enjoy an evening of literature, theatrical performance, and music at the theatre where Heartlines premiered. Now in book form, Heartlines: A Love Story (Talonbooks, 2025) imagines the lives and loves of activists, artists, gender pioneers, and queer couple Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore who resisted the nazis in 1940s Europe.
Featuring an introduction from the evening's host, director Rebecca Benson, a selection of scenes performed by actors Maryse Fernandes and Margo MacDonald with sound designer and musician Scottie Irving, and a talkback with author Sarah Waisvisz, this is an evening not to be missed.
Attendance is free! A cash bar will be available on the premises. Book sales will be provided by the amazing team at Octopus Books. And not to spoil any surprises, we’ve heard rumours that there will be cake. Join us in the upper lobby of the Great Canadian Theatre company to welcome Heartlines to the world.
