The Christmas Market

A Crow’s Theatre commission from Dora Mavor Moore Award-winning playwright Kanika Ambrose ( our place, Truth ), The Christmas Market is a radical and deeply felt new play set against the shimmering bustle of a snowy holiday market.

Far from home, three Caribbean migrant workers carve out a sense of belonging in an unfamiliar—and often unforgiving—landscape. In the quiet moments between shifts, they discover unexpected friendship—forging unshakeable bonds through their humour, grit, and shared determination to survive their first Canadian winter.

Razor-sharp, funny, and unflinching, The Christmas Market is a powerful exploration of community resilience and the hope created by found family.
