My Hands Were Made for This
By Alysha Mohamed
Friday, May 31 at 6:00 p.m.
Can love survive in the middle of a war zone? This beautifully haunting work explores the tale of two young lovers caught between divergent views of Islam. Her and Him have both grown up in Syria. She knows her religion to be one of peace, understanding and acceptance. His father is an extremist who embraces Jihad. Can love bridge a gap in ideologies?

Traveltheatrics
By Keara Barnes
Friday, June 7 at 12:00 p.m.
True tales of one woman’s travels around the globe. From stories of tigers, ghosts, romance, dangerous drives, fairies and family, Traveltheatrics is an adventure that ultimately reminds us that there is magic in the world.

Ai Yah! Open The Door!
By Dale Lee Kwong
Friday, June 7 at 6:00 p.m.
Hilarity and romance ensue when Jade Wong books a last-minute get away, only to discover the cruise is all women. Suddenly, her questions about her own sexuality are front and centre in this wild “prequel” to the smash hit Ai Yah! Sweet & Sour Secrets!
