Members of a theatre company struggle to finish a musical in order to come to terms with profound loss. Their lives have been knocked askew, and their burdens begin to blur the faint divide between the real world and the psychological.
All proceeds were donated to the Canadian Mental Health Association Middlesex.
A special thank to Paul Kennedy and Michael and Hermann Stadtlander for a wondering afternoon at the Covent Garden Market.
Join Owen Charters, President and CEO of the Boys and Girls Club, for a presentation about how nonprofits engage others in their causes. How do we ‘pitch’ empathy powerfully, but in a short amount of time and where audiences have fleeting attention spans? Ultimately, we have to create an emotional connection, often in a span of only 30 seconds.
Owen will also present “What I did with my degree in Arts and Humanities” on Friday, March 11 from 2:30 to 4:30 pm, in the SASAH Room, Weldon Library Room 109. All welcome!

At the National Arts Centre, Keiley has produced Metamorphoses: Based on the Myths of Ovid as well as a new interpretation -- with Andy Jones -- of Tartuffe set in Newfoundland. More recently, she has directed the premiere of Colony of Unrequited Dreams for Artistic Fraud in St. John’s, and The Diary of Anne Frank for the Stratford Festival. Her production of Alice Through the Looking-Glass has toured to the Confederation Centre (Charlottetown), the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre (Winnipeg), and the Citadel Theatre (Edmonton), featuring local casts in each city. In 2016, Keiley is directing Twelfth Night for the National Arts Centre, and As You Like It for the Stratford Festival.
Keiley won the Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council Emerging Artist of the Year Award in 1996, the Canada Council for the Arts’ John Hirsch Prize in 1998, and the Siminovitch Prize in Theatre in 2004.
