Why Not Theatre presents What You Won’t Do For Love, a hybrid live-theatre and film performance starring renowned environmentalists Drs. David Suzuki and Tara Cullis. Suzuki and Cullis reflect on their 50-year romantic relationship and their shared adventures and  advocacy for the planet. This charming and conversational show asks, can we learn to love the planet as much as we love other people?

Directed by Why Not Theatre Founder and Co-Artistic Director Ravi Jain (Mahabharata, Sea Sick, Prince Hamlet) with co-direction and dramaturgy by Broadleaf Creative Artistic Director Kevin Matthew Wong (The Chemical Valley Project, Benevolence Hall), What You Won’t Do For Love asks us to consider love’s capacity to inspire action and propel us all towards a healthier, sustainable planet.

On Wednesday, October 2, 2024, two visionary leaders, David Suzuki and Mark Carney, will come together to discuss ways we can balance the urgent need to protect the planet and build a thriving economy. The talk, moderated by Val Pringle, will occur over an elegant dinner at the Ritz Carlton, followed by the performance of What You Won’t Do for Love at TIFF Lightbox.
