Produced by Aluna Theatre, in partnership with Factory Theatre and Theatre Passe Muraille
Curated by Beatriz Pizano.
Aluna Theatre is thrilled to present the SEVENTH edition of the RUTAS International Festival of Performance from September 24 to October 4, 2026, in partnership with Theatre Passe Muraille and Factory Theatre. RUTAS 2026 will bring an array of national and international performances that invite us to imagine worlds we want to create together. From fantastical visual games that activate the imagination to stories that reveal that things are not what they seem to be, this edition of the festival does not shy away from the difficult, the controversial, the magical.
