Gabriola Players will be holding auditions next week for our spring 2025 production. Two plays are being considered for performance.
In Beyond the Sea by Kristen De Silva, Theo is a recently single man with self-image problem, Gwen is a good-humoured loner who works the ticket booth for a local boat tour company. On a summer day on a pier in a small town, the two strangers stumble into an encounter that just might save them both. “Beyond the Sea is a story about the emergence of hope through grief, via two unforgettable characters.”
In David Hare’s The Breath of Life, we meet Frances and Madeleine. The former was the dutiful wife of Martin, the latter his not-so-dutiful mistress of 25 years. Now he’s decamped to Seattle with a younger-than-both-of-them model and Frances has decided it’s time to get some answers. “David Hare lays bare the details of these women’s lives with a mixture of cunning and precision that keeps you on the edge of your seat. So, too, does the prickly tension that crackles between them.”
