Coquitlam residents Anthony Goncharov and Jim Jeong are cast in the west coast premiere of Concord Floral, a teen thriller that opens Jan. 19 at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts in Burnaby.

Goncharov is a Grade 11 student at Dr. Charles Best secondary in Coquitlam while Korean-born Jeong is in his graduating year at Riverside secondary in Port Coquitlam.

Based on The Decameron by Boccaccio, the play was shortlisted for the 2016 Governor General’s Award and won the 2015 Dora Award. The show also runs Jan. 25 to 29 at the PuSH Festival in Vancouver and Feb. 3 and 4 at the Surrey Arts Centre.
