Oct 29 - Nov 9: TRUE BELIEVERS, Solo Collective

Coming up, a show from Solo Collective that may serve up some Soul Food sustenance. Rachel Ditor directs Ian Weir's HOPE AND CARITAS; Rachel helmed the recent Arts Club production of DOUBT, and Ian is a playwright who's always had an interest in matters of faith, a speaker at TWU's Integration Forum. And Todd Thomson - memorable from PT's production of ESPRESSO - is featured in the Dennis Foon piece. It was SC's first production, TWO BY TWO, that introduced me to Shawn MacDonald's interest in spiritual things, and began the conversation that led eventually to PRODIGAL SON - now published! - gracing the Pacific Theatre stage. Trivia tidbit: Solo Collective co-Founder and Artistic Director Aaron Bushkowsky was Morris Ertman's Bible college room-mate (in days long since passed), and Pacific Theatre was the first BC company to produce a Bushkowsky play - SILLY SEASON, in 1990.
