About the 2Play Tour
Each year, Geordie Theatre’s landmark 2Play School Tour runs from September to May, performing in schools across Montréal and Eastern Canada. From Îles de la Madeleine to Chibougamau, Geordie brings professional live theatre to schools, community centres, and libraries in communities of all sizes.
Every 2Play performance comes with free dynamic learning resources, including a Study Guide and Visual Story, to keep the conversation going in class. And after every performance, your students get a live Q&A session with the cast.
Scroll down to find out which shows we can bring to your gym, your auditorium, your theatre, or even your cafeteria.
Live-streaming and homeschool options for the 2Play Tour are available.
For more information, please contact our Schools Liaison Emily at emily@geordie.ca.
Each season we...
travel 35,000km
perform 200 shows
inspire 41,000 students
IMPORTANT NOTE: This year’s 2Play Tour uses advanced projection technology and requires a performance space of at least 20 feet wide by 24 feet deep. When booking, please confirm whether your gym or auditorium meets these dimensions, or let us know the exact measurements so we can work with you to find the best solution.
The Shows on Tour in 2026-27
For Elementary
Nohkom's Knick-Knacks
Written & directed by Barry Bilinsky
Touring September 2026–May 2027
When Abby helps sort through the last boxes of her late Nohkom’s belongings before her family moves, a crusty stuffed lemur named Mugz wakes up and insists that every object has a story. As ordinary household items unlock memories of her Nohkom, Abby is drawn into a funny, heartfelt journey through grief, love, and Cree family memory.
Full of imagination, humour, and warmth, Nohkom’s Knick-Knacks is a moving celebration of what we inherit, what we hold onto, and how the people we miss continue to shape us.

Hooligan Theory
Written by Sarah Danielle Pitman
Directed by Dean Fleming
Touring September 2026–May 2027
When Madison, a teen with a head full of science and a plan to make art that means something, collides with Riley, a sharp, instinctive graffiti writer with a very different way of moving through the world, the two are pulled into an unexpected connection. As late-night tagging, quantum physics, and the pressures of everyday life begin to overlap, their friendship grows in ways that are funny, charged, and deeply human.
Hooligan Theory is a vivid play about art, class, risk, and what it means to be truly seen by someone who should not understand you, but somehow does.

Setup Requirements
To bring a 2Play show to your school, all we need is:
ACCESS TO OUTLETS
To plug in our sound and projection systems.
A PLACE TO PERFORM
A space (gym, cafeteria, auditorium, etc.) that is a minimum of 20 feet wide by 24 feet deep, and a minimum of 10 feet in height.
3 CHAIRS AND 1 TABLE
For the use of our performers and tour manager.
AND THAT’S IT!
We have our own sound and projection system, and can use whatever lights you have available in the space (even if they’re just fluorescents).
Please note, however, that if you would like us to perform in an auditorium or theatre with stage lighting, we will need a technician to show us around and provide access to your equipment.
Bookings for our 2Play Tour 26/27 are now open!
2Play Tour bookings are confirmed on a first-come, first-served basis, so we encourage schools to make their booking requests before December to secure their preferred date and time. We continue to accept booking requests throughout the school year—if availability becomes limited, schools will be placed on a waitlist and contacted if a date becomes available.
