UPCOMING EVENTS
Public Reading - FORGIVE/FORGET
May 4, 2024
I wish you were different. I wish I was different. We all wish we were someone else. But we’re not, remember? Connie has a girl crush on Eve. Eve thinks she should leave Amir. Tim meets Connie for the first time every day. Carlos has reinvented himself, but the past catches up. “Forgive/Forget” is an award-winning whirlwind of envy, expectations, and conflicting interests.
Public Reading - Fifth Date
May 11, 2024
Ted and Julia, middle-aged and hopeful that their new relationship will work, meet for their fifth date. But here, secrets are revealed that will challenge them (and the audience) to consider questions of redemption, free will versus determinism, sexuality, the Canadian justice system, and more. By the date’s end, everything will have changed, leaving the audience to consider: what comes next for this couple, with their dark secrets?
Fifth Date is an original one-act play that will premiere at the 2024 Winnipeg Fringe Festival (July 17-28th) at The Gargoyle Theatre.
Public Reading - 40 Below
May 18, 2024
Two Winnipeg transit drivers, Murdock and Jerry, cross paths on New Year's Eve on the free transit line. As each learns more about the other, they encounter many unique riders who have more in common with them than they initially think. The show grapples with morality, magazine quizzes, lost cats, and what it truly means to be a “good person”.
40 Below is an original one-act play that will premiere at the 2024 Winnipeg Fringe Festival (July 17-28th).
