Another thought on offing nuns

I was riding my bike in the Don Valley this morning and, as I passed underneath the Bloor Street Viaduct, a thought struck me.  Maybe Against the Grain Theatre’s next Toronto-centric opera adaptation coud be Dialogues des CarmélitesThe last scene could be staged with the nuns jumping, one by one, from the viaduct.  I don’t know whether enough people have read In the Skin of a Lion to get the reference but what could be more Toronto than Ondaatje?
