Before Hiroshima: Halifax. A world, a town, a romance can shatter in an instant. 

1917 Halifax. The largest man-made explosion before Hiroshima hits Nova Scotia, Canada. Devastation unimaginable; the witch-hunt begins for someone to blame.

At the center of it all stands Anna Maclean, a teenager whose first romance is threatened when her family considers an enemy within their fold. Shocking and surprisingly relevant to our post-9/11 world, this critically-acclaimed Canadian play in its American premiere is an eerie examination of the cycles of fear

  • Shatter unfolds close to the heart, splintering it into a million pieces as it follows the prejudiced upshot of the 1917 Halifax explosion…[the production is] a living, breathing gem.
