Presented by SWAP Hamilton Inc. and The Hamilton Festival Theatre Company

Based on a true story, Victoria Schneider: Verified follows a trans woman and sex worker who fought back against police abuse – and won. Using court transcripts and archival records, this bold new play blends documentary theatre, courtroom drama, and biting humour to expose how so-called “procedure” can be used to justify harm.

Created with Victoria’s direct involvement, this is a story of dignity, resistance, and the quiet power of insisting on the truth. It begs the question: Who gets to be believed?
