Concrete Cabaret #18: Hanging By A Thread
Sunday November 30th | 6:00pm
We’re excited to be part of the latest edition of Concrete Cabaret, Toronto’s Experimental Puppetry and Performing Objects Cabaret. The Necessary Penguins will be there with a short “Penguin Pop-Up” called Necessary Pareidolia, an excerpt from their full length audience participation puppetry extravaganza that will be going back on tour next Spring.
Concrete Cabaret is a seasonal experimental puppetry and performing objects show in Toronto. It features short, low-tech performances that challenge theatrical norms. An offshoot of Montreal’s long running Café Concret, it typically features food and live music, drawing inspiration from the tradition of “Spaghetti Dinners” preceding puppetry cabarets in New York City.
Join us on November 30th for dinner and an out-there evening of experimental, unpolished, under-rehearsed puppet fun!

Bygone Theatre
379 Adelaide Street West, 4th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Driving Information
The Bygone Theatre / The Bridge is located in downtown Toronto on Adelaide Street West, just west of Spadina Avenue between Queen Street West and King Street West. Adelaide Street West is an eastbound one way street street and accessible to vehicles from Brant Street, one block west of Spadina. Paid parking is available at 355 Adelaide, just east of Spadina. Limited street parking may also be available nearby (check posted signs for details).
Public Transit
The Bridge is served by the 510 Spadina streetcar from Spadina Station (TTC Lines 1 & 2) and Union Station (TTC Line 1, GO Transit, UPExpress). Get off at the Adelaide Street West stop and walk west on Adelaide for approximately 3 minutes.
Accessibility
Unfortunately, The Bridge is not accessible to guests in wheelchairs, or those who are unable to climb stairs. The building is over 100 years old and is built in an odd way that requires guests to climb a flight of stairs before reaching the elevator, and its hallways and bathrooms are not wide enough to be AODA compliant. We deeply regret these barriers to access at this event.
