Pride Sunday Worship Service
FeaturedFairlawn Avenue United Church 28 Fairlawn Avenue, Toronto, Toronto, CanadaFairlawn Avenue is delighted to welcome playwright Robbie Norquay to help us celebrate Pride Month Pride Sunday, on May 25 at 10:30am. We will have the opportunity to meet and hear from Robbie in conversation with Kevin Doe. Robbie Norquay is the son of a United Church minister who sang in choirs in his dad’s church, Earlscourt United. (Coincidentally, he is also Morrey Ewing’s cousin!) When Robbie was ten, his sister declared his first play existentialist. He had to ask her what that meant. Following a career in the public service, Robbie sought a more creative outlet for his lifelong love of writing. In 2018, Robbie discovered Act 2 Studio Works. Robbie’s first short play, Good Grief, featured a brother and sister packing up their mother’s house after her death. Long Live the Rainbow is Robbie’s second full-length play, a heartfelt story about a relationship within the context of 70s and 80s 2SLGBTQIA+ activism in Toronto. Robbie observes, “The recent rising cacophony of racist, misogynist, homo and transphobic voices suggests that the battle is not over. Long Live the Rainbow is a play that reminds us why we fought for human rights and why we must join with allies to help them with their fight too.” Long Live the Rainbow played at the Alumnae theatre May 16-25, 2025. Fairlawn Avenue is delighted to welcome Robbie to help us celebrate Pride Month 2025.
