Harriet’s House at Hart House Theatre-Pride Guide Out Soon

As an Affiliated Pride Event, Harriet's House will be featured in the 2010 Toronto Pride Guide which will be out very soon. Look for our beautiful ad designed by Lisa Rupchand and order your tickets to our re-scheduled shows on July 2, 3, 4, 2010 at 8 pm.

My reading of scenes from Harriet's House last week at the Representing Motherhood conference at Ryerson went very well and we had an interesting discussion on the challenges of adoptive mothering. I was asked for the name of a good resource on adoptive mothering. One of my favorite books is a memoir called Beyond Good Intentions: A Mother Reflects on Raising Internationally Adopted Children by Cheri Register. Cheri's book is published by Yeong & Yeong Book Company in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Exciting news this week: Harriet's House has been awarded a $700.00 grant from the 2010 Pride Access & Diversity Grants Program, which is supported by Pride Toronto and the Community One Foundatio.

Harriet's House has also found two patrons. Our deepest thanks and appreciation to Mark and Alix Feldman (actor Estée Feldman's parents) for the generous contribution to our show.

All the best,
Tara
