Intrepid Theatre

Red Phone is a FREE, one-of-a-kind performance where anyone can engage in some of the most urgent, touching and uplifting conversations that prominent Canadian writers think we should all be having.

Part theatre and part social intervention, this audience-to-audience performance uses the intimacy of a phone call and the technology of a teleprompter to introduce strangers to each other. Two audience members are guided through a conversation about life, art and their surroundings. The experience takes place between two beautifully-crafted, fully enclosed phone booths outfitted with a curly corded red phone.

Audience info:
As only two audience members can be accommodated at a time, please note you may expect a short wait for your turn. Each conversation is approximately 5 – 10 minutes. No advance sign-up required, just arrive anytime between Red Phone’s hours of operations. Free!
