Classic Theatre Festival

Two wonderful audiences for two wonderful performances!

Burning Passions Theatre's opening shows yesterday for A Circle Complete were warmly received by afternoon and evening audiences, with terrific post-show talkbacks as well.

The show runs two more times today (Friday March 27 at 2 pm and 7 pm) at the wheelchair accessible Rideau-Rockliffe Crc Drama Room (2nd floor).

It's so rare that media/entertainment in any context focuses on the lives, hopes, dreams, and challenges faced by seniors, Ottawa's fastest growing demographic and one increasingly enduring poverty due to lack of supports and services, the corrosive effects of ageism, and a society with the wrong priorities.

Written and directed by Laurel Smith, and featuring Joanne Veillette, Tammy Southin, Deborah Bolton and Bonnie McDougall (Stage Management by Matthew Behrens), this new hour-long play with post-show audience talkback is by, about, and performed with Ottawa seniors.

Tickets are pay-what-you-can and no one is turned away for lack of funds! Learn more at https://bptheatre.ca/new-play-highlights-challenge… ... See MoreSee Less
