Upcoming Shows

February 11th to 15th, 2015

FORREST NICKERSON THEATRE
285 Pembina Hwy (South of Confusion Corner)

Discover the love life and untimely death of psychiatrist Christian Faber: a role originally performed by Noël Coward in London, New York, and a 1950 feature film!

In Chris Faber's drawing room sit his wife and assistants, awaiting the siren Leonora in answer to his death-bed call.

Four flashbacks unravel the love triangle between doctor, wife, and mistress – a woman who set out to capture her best friend's husband, and was herself ensnared. Returning to the present, we witness the play's final, shocking conclusion.

A gripping drama, from the producer of "Augustus Does His Bit" (ShawFest 2012) and "A Marriage Proposal" / "The Anniversary" (ChekhovFest 2014).

Part of the CowardFest 2015 Master Playwright Festival:
