What is the Book of Judith?

The Book of Judith, created by Michael Rubenfeld and Sarah Garton Stanley, is a musical play about a self-annointed preacher man who is passionately driven to change the lives of others. After a chance meeting with a quadriplegic woman named Judith Snow, theatre artist Matthew Goldberg believes he has “seen the light”. With the help of his director, Shauna Coupland, and her best friend, disabled artist, Pippa McLaren, Matthew has managed to coral a fully integrated group of choristers with and without disability, to help him tell, for the first time, his inspirational, maniacal and deeply suspect tale of Judith Snow. The Book of Judith takes us from innocence to ignorance and through to the other side – a truer place of transformation.

The Book of Judith stars Michael Rubenfeld and features Sarah Garton Stanley, Judith Snow and a revolving cast comprised of local members of the community the work is performed in. It is directed by Sarah Garton Stanley.

TENT!!!!!!!!!

THE TENT! THE TENT! THE TENT! THE TENT! THE TENT! THE TENT! THE TENT!



The tent was pitched today at approximately 2:00 pm at CAMH! After a mother's day dinner, and a brief stop over to witness the Tamil protest (humbling and overwhelming) I zipped up to Queen and Ossington to bear witness to OUR TENT. IT'S THERE!!!

I met Shema (sp?) who was the SECURITY GUARD and he let me go inside.



HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP.

I got inside and I just walked around and giggled with glee.

I couldn't believe it. It's a tent. ITS A TENT. WE ARE DOING OUR SHOW IN A TENT!

I'm not sure why, but it hadn't occured to me that being in a tent is NOTHING LIKE BEING IN A THEATRE. It was so incredible to get to go in there before the stage and lighting rigs went up. Amazing to feel the power of a tent.

Tomorrow, myself and the entire choir will be in the tent in the evening, and starting Tuesday morning, we will be rehearsing there all day every day all the time yes. yes. yes.

THE BOOK OF JUDITH IS COMING, AND THERE'S NOTHING THAT WILL GET IN ITS WAY! (knock on wood!)
