Dec 9/10/12/14: CONFESSIONS OF A PAPERBOY


Georgia Straight:
GOD ON YOUR DOORSTEP
in Doug Curtis's CONFESSIONS OF A PAPER BOY. God speaks directly to 10-year-old newspaper carrier Christopher Columbus. Soon, Christopher is delivering miracles. Talk about a subscription drive. But assuming God isn't in this to up circulation, what exactly is the Almighty doing and why has S/He chosen this kid to do it with? Apparently this show from Calgary's Ghost River Theatre, which runs next Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday in the Cultch's spiffy new VanCity Culture Lab, is all about faith and loss. It's also about the possibility that Satan lives in the brown bungalow down the block.
