About

Hi, I’m Aurora.

My debut novel, Julius Julius was published by Strange Light (Penguin Random House Canada) in June of 2025. It’s available wherever books are sold in North America.

My plays have been read and / or performed in Toronto at Buddies in Bad Times, Factory Theatre, The Harbourfront Centre, Theatre Passe Muraille, at SummerWorks and in New York with Brooklyn College and LaMama. They’ve been reviewed in the Globe and Mail, Toronto Life, The Star, Now Magazine, etc. I am currently working on a new one with Voyage Theater in New York with my beloved collaborator Rose Burnett Bonczek.

I’m working on a new book. I’m editing that play. I grow geraniums and have learned to surf. I host small dinner parties. I love ghost stories and shopping for records and clothes.
