Infinity Performing Arts Studio presents Lost Heroes of Oro

The Lost Heroes of Oro is an immersive narrative that transports you through the historical events of the 1700s-1800s, shedding light on a significant chapter of Canada's past: slavery. At its heart, the story revolves around one of Canada's Black heroes, Richard Pierpoint, and the profound connection between his journey and the African Methodist Episcopal Church nestled in Oro-Medonte. Through song, drama, and dance, this captivating tale reaches back to the African continent, offering a glimpse into the remarkable life of Richard Pierpoint, a Black former slave. Driven by unwavering ambition, relentless determination, and an unshakable passion, Pierpoint embarked on a courageous journey that ultimately led him to the shores of Canada. His mission is to fulfill a destiny forged by his enduring spirit and resilience.

Though this period in history is often seen as a dark chapter, Alinka Angelova transforms it into something truly beautiful. Witness how she brings light to a time of suffering, leaving you inspired and uplifted as you walk out of the theatre.
