T.O. Live’s Best of Fringe Winner, Sold-out run at the 2025 Toronto Fringe Festival
What would you do if, 12 years after losing someone you love, you discovered that they’d documented every moment of your life (in triplicate)? And does it count as hoarding if the thing hoarded is… memories?
In Things My Dad Kept, award-winning playwright and storyteller Ronit Rubinstein links the childhood stories of her father’s wartime survival with the physical and digital ephemera they each felt compelled to keep, resulting in a hilarious, irreverent, and moving solo show about her dead dad, the unexpected ways grief evolves, and the wildly impractical ways we show love.
This piece was developed in part within Nightwood Theatre’s Creatryx 3.0 Unit, and with the support of Replay Storytelling.
