NEW MAGIC VALLEY FUN TOWN
by Daniel MacIvor
Sun Mar 26, 2023, 7:30 pm

One of Canada’s greatest playwrights brings us a remarkable new work. In Cape Breton, best friends from childhood reunite after 25 years apart and spend an evening full of laughter, regrets, and revisiting uncomfortable memories that can’t be washed away. A funny and hope-filled play about the long shadow of childhood trauma and reconciling the person you once were with the person you want to be today.

THE SECRET MASK
by Rick Chafe
Starring Randy Read
Sun May 7, 2023, 7:30 pm
 
Nominated for the Governor-General’s Award, this moving play is about man who loses his language and finds his son. When a BC man is hospitalized with a stroke that leaves him with aphasia, he is reunited with his reluctant son from Winnipeg whom he walked out on 40 years ago. Told with a deft comic touch, a father and son learn to communicate amid fractured memories and fragile language.

SWEAT
by Lynn Nottage
Sun June 11, 2023, 7:30 pm

Winner of the 2017 Pulitzer Prize. A chilling and timely play about a group of colleagues whose fortunes decline between 2000 and the 2008 financial crisis.  A devastating account of American industrial collapse and the racial and class tensions that shatter the surface when people become desperate and feel their backs are against the wall.
