As part of the first-ever ATB Canadian Series, we are very excited to present the world premiere of Shelter, Nov. 15-18 at La Cité Francophone. A fable that flirts with the dangerous beauty of science, Shelter is the result of years of research and workshopping by composer Juliet Palmer and librettist Julie Salverson. Fall in love with the classics on our main stage while experiencing something new and intriguing during the ATB Canadian Series.
