The Shoe Project returns to the stage at the Daniels Spectrum Theatre on May 1, 2022 at 2pm with its latest performance, “Landed: One Step at a Time”. Among the performers will be Rukhshana Ahmadi, a recent evacuee from Afghanistan. Training as a pilot in Afghanistan, Ahmadi made the tough decision to leave her home country and her family members. Now in Toronto, The Shoe Project is helping her to share her harrowing experience.

“Who knew that a pair of shoes could change your life?” says Ahmadi. “In my case it was my shoes that gave me the courage to take those first hesitant steps that would change the course of my life forever.”

Eleven women, from Afghanistan, Turkey, Syria, Mexico, Cameroon, Bolivia, Russia, China and Columbia will share their stories of immigration and adaptation to Canada – through a pair of shoes. The event will also feature a Q & A session with the audience after the performance, moderated by Canadian broadcaster Wendy Mesley.
