Caretakers

In Collaboration with Clay and Paper Theatre

Hey Pollywog, want the inside scoop? Our newest blog by Summer Company member, Erin Eldershaw, features and profiles our work on Caretakers.

Led by Frog in Hand's own Andrew Gaboury and Alice Cavanagh, ten clowns from the 2021 Summer Company will be let loose along the Waterfront Trail in Port Credit. Their red noses will provide a surprising, heart-warming addition to the beautiful views of Port Credit’s own Tall Oaks, St. Lawrence, and JJ Plaus Parks. Through the late afternoon (5pm-7pm) the clowns will chat with passersby, collecting joy. In the evening (8pm-10pm) they will celebrate with a parade of glowing puppets. Join us on Fridays in July from dusk to dark!
