Democracy

Fall/Winter 1998 Conceived by Julia von Flotow; Written by David Anderson and Julia von Flotow, Directed by Julia von Flotow; Music by David Anderson. 

"Democracy" was a ten minute outdoor show produced by DragonTime Productions to highlight the fight against the horrible Mega-City Bill 103, sponsored by Citizens for Local Democracy.   Democracy  was presented in parks, shopping centres, city halls and Toronto's Massey Hall, Fall/Winter 1998.
Designed for the politically apathetic, indifferent or confused, Democracy featured the Spirit of Democracy, Mike Harris and his bus, Mega City Bill, the Mayor, the Child of Courage, a Squeegie Kid, and a streetwise philosopher. We lost that battle ... the provincial government had already passed the wildly unpopular and undemocratic "Omnibus Bill" and we did not prevent Toronto from becoming a "mega-city". But mushrooms have been know to grow through cement sidewalks.
