Contrary to the received wisdom in anthropology in the 1950s and 1960s, the most important rituals for the Ndembu weren’t those that affirmed the organic solidarity of the group but those that mediated the ruptures in the social fabric caused by transgressions and violations of the social order. Turner’s resulting focus on social conflict changed the way we think about how social beings – including ourselves – relate. But had anthropologists truly internalized Ovid’s Metamorphoses from two thousand years earlier, perhaps they may not have been so surprised by the critical role of transgressions in pushing ahead human development. Metamorphoses, a collection of stories essentially about a universe in flux, is propelled by the most heinous transgressions of gods and humans: incest, lust, addiction, excessive pride, egocentrism.  \nI have long believed that it is one of the central roles ofthe arts to transgress, and in so doing to show us new ways of understanding – indeed art can serve asan agent provocateur, a “provocative agent”, allowing us to experience other realities and in so doing to select from alternative ideas and possible futures. I applaud Theatre Erindale’s courage in devoting an entire season to the ways in which we can learn from the transgressive act.  \nJoin us as Theatre Erindale leads the way in a romp through the comic and dramatic possibilities opened up by violations and transgressions. The University of Toronto Mississauga, in collaboration with the Sheridan Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning, is proud of our own violations of institutional boundaries that have resulted in one of Canada’s leading theatre and drama programs!  \n– Gage Averill  \nFrom the Artistic Director    \nTheatre Erindale’s seventeenth season is going to be among the most challenging – and entertaining!– we have ever presented for you.  \nOur theme this year is “Violations”. Every story we’re planning to tell, whether comic or tragic, is set in motion by behaviour that is somehow transgressive. In some manner, in some area of the world, someone steps over the bounds of conventional decorum in a civilized society and – voila!– a story is underway. And from one of our stories to another, that transgressive behaviour covers the gamut from the sexually naughty or the comically deluded all the way to the brutal and invasive actions of a totalitarian regime.  \nThis year we’re inviting you on a daring exploration from 20th-century South America to baroque France to the contemporary USA – not to mention points between.  \nTheatre Erindale productions feature the committed performances ofthe stars of tomorrow with the design and direction of seasoned professionals. For this performance we’re especially delighted to welcome for the first time special guest Bill Lane, and to welcome back Christopher Dawes, Sarah Jane Burton, and Kevin Bowers.  \nBut the most crucial element of all is you. Thank you for joining us on this voyage. Come back soon!  \nSincerely,  \nFrom the Director    \nAll over the world, every year, thousands of people suffer what has become known as “enforced disappearance”. They are lost to their families and friends, and their abductors – often acting on behalf of government or military authorities – refuse to reveal their whereabouts, or even whether they are alive or dead. In an affront to the centuries-old principle of habeas corpus, these men, women and children are simply made to “disappear”. Although enforced disappearance is defined as a “crime against humanity” by the International Court of Justice, Amnesty International and others have been fighting for years to bring this barbaric practice to an end.  \nFor Ariel Dorfman, the imagination is a powerful weapon in this struggle for justice.
