Laughter is the best medicine. You will get a belly full of laughs in this play by Wingfield Farms creator Dan Needles – “The Perils of Persephone”. Anything can and does happen when a truck load of unknown content, possibly toxic waste, gets accidentally dumped into the Currie farm swamp. Local politicians, the whole Currie family, and the truck driver all weigh in for a piece of the media pie.
At the bargain price of $24, half price for kids, you can support local theatre, see a lot of your favorite peeps on stage, backstage, at the snack bar, in the tech booth and at the same time be treated to hilarious performances by many well-known actors, including David Bird and Chrystine Williams. And who doesn’t adore the energy and detail that Carolee Mason puts into her productions from the director chair?
There are 8 chances to see this piece of satirical comedy – 4 matinees and 4 evening performances.
Tickets are available at ticketsplease.ca or at the door one hour before show times.
It’s no joke -laughter is simply good for you.
Produced by Robert FeDuke.
