Opening Soulpepper’s Lab Series last season with a limited run that drew much acclaim, The Aleph returns featuring three of Canada’s most celebrated theatre creators, director Daniel Brooks, designer Michael Levine and actor/writer/Soulpepper Founding Member Diego Matamoros. The Aleph is a thought-provoking adaptation of a short story by Argentinean master Jorge Luis Borges that also takes inspiration from Diego Matamoros’ own experiences as a young man in South America.
