Event Details
Toronto has been deeply shaped by its secrets. Dramatic scenes have played out in the dark corners of our city; our past is filled with tales of espionage, betrayal and conspiracy. History has been made by our secret agents, undercover operatives, bootleggers, con artists and thieves.
Award-winning storyteller, teacher and historian Adam Bunch shares a special presentation that shines a light into the city’s shadows and takes us down into the mysterious nooks and crannies where that history is written in whispers.
