Life of Pi

Based on the best-selling book by Yann Martel, LIFE OF PI will make Toronto the only Canadian city able to experience this extraordinary show.

Winner of five Olivier Awards, including Best New Play and three Tony Awards! After conquering the West End and Broadway, the ★★★★★ ‘theatrical phenomenon’ (Telegraph) embarks on its biggest adventure yet.

Jaw-dropping visuals and world-class puppetry combine in a unique and ‘breath-taking’ (The Times) theatrical event that is ‘a wonder to behold’ (Daily Mail).

After an epic storm in the Pacific Ocean, Pi is stranded on a lifeboat with four other survivors – a hyena, a zebra, an orangutan, and a Royal Bengal tiger.

Based on the global phenomenon and winner of the Man Booker Prize, selling over fifteen million copies worldwide, LIFE OF PI is the hugely popular story of an epic journey of endurance and hope. With this strictly limited engagement, you will not want to miss this one! 

“It will make you believe in theatre. A triumph.” - (Sunday Times).

The Cast 

The production that will play Toronto comes from the UK and features some of the Olivier-Award-winning actors who starred in the play’s original London West End production. The cast, many of whom are of South Asian descent, includes veteran actors with credits across the spectrum of UK theatre, from small companies to the National and the RSC; to actors just beginning their careers.
