EVENT: The Mysterious Case of the Flying Anarchist


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

THE MYSTERIOUS CASE OF THE FLYING ANARCHIST 
A new adaptation of a Dario Fo play by Matt Jones

The next time the G20 comes to town, Rob Ford is ready, Stephen Harper is ready, Police Chief Bill Blair is ready. So when a bomb goes off downtown, scores of protesters are rounded up right away.

Everything is going smoothly until an anarchist organizer falls to his 
death from a window during interrogation. Police reports say it's an accident. And that it's a suicide. A lone maniac tries to discover the truth

.What was the Mayor doing at the police station that night?


Based on Dario Fo’s classic 1970 clown show, 
Accidental Death of an Anarchist, Matt Jones’s adaptation

landscape.

Creative Writing program, Jones will be starting a PhD 
in Theatre Studies at the University of Toronto this 
September.
