Directed by Molly Beatrice with design production by Hannah Abbott, the 50-minute play will be mounted outside at Heritage Square by Place des Arts (1120 Brunette Ave.) and other locations.

The cast is made up of:

They were mentored by playwright and director Amiel Gladstone and Alan Brodie, a design director who teaches lighting and drafting at Langara College’s Studio 58.
