Description: Theatre In the Raw takes a trio of brand new one-act plays on the road and they're coming to Chilliwack! So, what do ya call a small swarm of buzzin’ bees that “tell”… a misplaced forearm gone awry… and a winged Jack Benny with an assignment? It’s the “Festival of Mythical Plays and Winning One-Acts” being presented by Vancouver’s own Theatre In the Raw.
They’re hittin’ the road with their 2009 spring Lower Mainland mini-tour of original one-act plays: 1. Nuclear Fall-In by Ed Ballou - an original winning One-Act Play – A nuclear family is living/working too close to a leaky nuclear plant. (no pun intended) Mutation of living creatures is on the rise. This play has a number of way out surprises and something “loaded” to say. 2. Jack Benny & The Angels by multi-talented actor Jason Logan - an original One-Act Myth Radio Play – Jack is back but as an angel with an important job to do! Visiting Earth, he interviews a whole slew of wacky characters who happen to reside in BC believe it or not. Is humanity worth saving is the question? 3. Telling Of The Bees by Jesse Matthew Cooper - an original One-Act Myth Play – Can bees help a troubled soul to tell the truth? A concerned father, an expectant wife, a farm to be sold, all rest in the hands of someone with a secret that the bees want told. Directed by Jay Hamburger, artistic director of Theatre In the Raw Society, a grassroots award-winning professional company which has a long history of commitment and work within the East Side of Vancouver and to social justice issues – “Giving Exposure to Voices Seldom Heard” since 1994. You may have seen or heard about Raw’s very successful mainstage production of “Bruce – The Musical” (by Bob Sarti, music by Bill Sample and Earle Peach) when they presented 10 shows to full houses at the Russian Hall in Vancouver’s historic Strathcona community last Fall during the popular “Heart of the City Festival”.
