This production of Network is an outstanding show that, in better times, could have graced ‘as is’ the Vancouver Playhouse stage. It makes an important statement about some news media (like Fox News) that’s rife with what Stephen Colbert calls “relative truthiness” and that peddles fake news not news supported by facts.

HARM is a vitally important play about loneliness and our ‘click affair’ with social media. See it and laugh or don’t laugh. Either way.

Written by and performing as Grace is Faly Mevamanana and a more animated, exuberant performer is hard to imagine: dressed in a puffy pink dress and wearing pink, low-heeled shoes, Mevamanana’s Grace is just so darned cute with her wild curly hair and big-as-all-outdoors smile.

A new Canadian play is cause for celebration and a new play by local award-winning playwright, poet, novelist and educator Aaron Bushkowsky makes the world premiere of The Replacement Wife even more exciting.
