The Blyth Festival has announced their 2027 season. Once again, they’re championing Canadian stories, with a vibrant mix of comedy, music, true-life drama, and literary adaptation, says Artistic Director Gil Garratt. The Piano Man’s Daughter Part 1 & Part 2 by Timothy Findley Adapted by Gil Garratt June 8 – Aug 7, 2027 The 2027 season launches with two plays: the world premiere of Timothy Findley’s acclaimed novel, “The Piano Man’s Daughter,” adapted by Gil Garratt as an epic theatrical event in two parts. The two plays encompass a sweeping, music-filled family epic, “The Piano Man’s Daughter” brings to life the tangled legacy of love, longing and secrets across generations. Set against the jazz-soaked backdrop of 1930s Toronto and the humming farm fields of rural Ontario, the story follows Charlie Kilworth—a piano tuner haunted by his mother Lily’s mysterious condition and the unanswered question of his own parentage. As the Wyatt family’s fortunes rise and fall with the keys of their pianos, Lily’s mythic, otherworldly presence and her struggle for belonging ignite a journey through memory, madness, and the search for one safe place to call home. Blending theatrical spectacle, live jazz, and unforgettable characters, this adaptation is a lyrical, emotionally-charged drama about inheritance, identity, and the music that binds us all. The productions invite festivalgoers to experience a full day of theatre, with the option of a country-supper meal in the Lower Hall. Or see the two plays separately across the season. This adaptation marks a cultural milestone for Blyth, celebrating Findley’s remarkable and enduring legacy in Canadian arts.
