Let Me Explain

A Green Light Arts' Production

A hilarious night of songs, satire, and personal stories.

Izad Etemadi has spent most of his life explaining himself to others: his ethnicity, his sexuality, the pronunciation of his name. But as an elder-millennial dealing with back pain and digestive issues, he doesn’t have the time or energy to keep explaining things. This queer Iranian-Canadian immigrant born in Germany is going to attempt to explain his entire existence in 60-ish minutes, so he never has to do it again.

Originally founded in 2015, the Canal Pursuit began as a solo 785 km run by Clay Williams along the full length of the Trent-Severn and Rideau Canals—Port Severn to Ottawa—averaging an incredible 90 km per day. Since then, it has grown into a province-wide initiative that has raised more than $150,000 and inspired thousands to speak up, seek help, and support mental health programs in their communities. Now we are hosting small events all over to help spread awareness !
