Al Purdy

Al Purdy was one of the greats of Canadian literature. His poems bridge the gap between academia and the factory lunchroom, and they span the country as well. In this celebration of his work, Purdy takes his audience on a tour of the land he loves, and the passionate characters who people it. All this from Purdy’s vantage point at a table at the rear of the Quinte Hotel!

Al Purdy at the Quinte Hotel premiered on CBC Radio in February, 2004 and starred Gordon Pinsent.

NEWS! There are two performances to benefit the mandate of the Al Purdy A-Frame Association - Sept 28 in Ameliasburgh.
