Director’s Notes

How does one choose a good play for the end of winter? You know, the time when all but the skiers are longing for the return of the warm days and first crocuses. Such a play should provide a lift for the spirits, something to feel good about.  For me that means a tender story about real people, and preferably with plenty of humour.

That is what attracted me to Norm Foster’s Wrong for Each Other. Foster is one of Canada’s best loved playwrights. You can count on him for witty dialogue. But I’m not interested in presenting a play that is only for laughs. I also want a good dramatic story line with characters I recognizes, working out life issues that I can relate to. Wrong for Each Other has it all. Rudy and NOrah are likable characters who really care about each other. But just as we all do, they hurt each other sometimes. You know the dance we do when we want to get close to someone but we fear getting too close too fast. So we go two steps forward and one step black. Sometimes we run away completely. It’s all about finding love and releasing in each other the freedom to live hide to the full. 

It has been a joy working with Stephen Hiscock and Kate Hunter, two serous, hard working and talented actors. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I have. My thanks also to a very capable crew. So sit back, relax and soak it up. Tell your friends.
