SUMMARY:Punjabi Wabi Sabi
DESCRIPTION:Bollywood meets Breaking Bad? \nWhat if Saddam Hussein had a love child with Britney Spears? \nBristling with hilarious storytelling\, Punjabi Wabi Sabi is an irreverant\, autobiographical and moving stand-up show by Tahina Awan: a middle-aged\, delinquent\, perverted\, first-generation Canadian Muslim woman born in small town BC in the ’70s. \nGrowing up GenX is hard – especially when you’re a Muslim girl\, and you don’t want anyone to know! Join us as we follow our ill-behaved and sexually repressed narrator as she journeys through life trying to reconcile her identity amidst racism\, self-rejection\, deep trauma and raging hormones. \nOh\, and the 1980s. \nPart stand-up and part theatre\, this is a one-woman show that gets into the nitty gritty of who we are versus who the world wants us to be. This is a story about how the human spirit rages against its cages\, how we are basically all the same with different packaging\, and how we are perhaps more perfect because we’re all fucked up.

SUMMARY:Jake's Gift
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating 20 years \nIn June 2004\, Julia Mackey travelled to Normandy\, France\, for the 60th Anniversary of D-Day. She attended many ceremonies\, walked the coastline and interviewed dozens of veterans who had returned for the occasion. The experiences of the veterans\, her own discoveries\, and a life long interest in Remembrance Day\, led to the development of the play in August of 2006 at The Sunset Theatre in Wells\, BC. \nTHE PLAY \nJake’s Gift is a multi-award winning Canadian play about a World War II veteran’s reluctant return to Normandy\, France\, for the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landings. While revisiting the shores of Juno beach\, Jake encounters Isabelle\, a precocious 10-year-old from the local village. Isabelle’s inquisitive nature and charm challenge the old soldier to confront some long-ignored ghosts – most notably the war-time death of his eldest brother\, Chester\, a once promising young musician. At its heart\, Jake’s Gift is about the legacy of remembrance and makes personal the story behind one soldier’s grave. \nSince 2007\, Jake’s Gift has gone on to play at festivals and theatres in over 250 communities across Canada\, including International stops to Washington State\, the UK and Normandy\, France\, for the 70th & 73rd Anniversary of D-Day. In June 2019\, the company returned to Normandy for the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. They presented performances in both French and English at the Juno Beach Centre and La Salle de la Mer in Bernières sur Mer as well as other communities and venues in Normandy. \nIn December 2025\, Julia received the Governor General Meritorious Service Cross Award for her work on Jake’s Gift.

SUMMARY:The Ballad of Georges Boivin
DESCRIPTION:“Beautifully written\, directed\, designed and acted\, and it has so much to say about aging\, friendship\, and\, above all\, the enduring qualities of love.” \n– Louis B. Hobson\, Calgary Herald \nAbout the Play\nThe Ballad of Georges Boivin is a heart-warming story familiar to anyone who has had an impressionable first love and after many decades is left wondering. It is a gentle comedy that appeals to all ages but has particular relevance to those who have lived a little longer. \nWe follow Georges\, a 76 year old retired school teacher on a cross-country road trip as he attempts to re-connect with a person he hasn’t seen or heard from in over 50 years. All he has is a 50 year old address in Vancouver. \nAccompanying Georges are three old geezers from the retirement home in Montreal who humour Georges and go with him on this adventure – all thinking that they’ll be home that night for dinner. \nThe play features Duval Lang\, a prominent\, award winning\, Calgary actor as Georges and is directed by Bronwyn Steinberg. The production premiered at Lunchbox Theatre in the spring of 2024. \nThe Team\nBy Martin Bellemare \nTranslated by Jack Patterson with Joanne Nutter \nDirected by Bronwyn Steinberg \nPerformed by Duval Lang \nProduced and Stage Managed by Neil Fleming
