This little lunchtime one-act was a surprising gem. "A small-town flower girl falls for a gravedigger in Stalinist Russia. What can go wrong? Well, it’s a Russian play, so: everything."
Written by a young Canadian playwright, this production's direction was top-notch, full of lovely little touches related to the lighting, music, movement, etc.
As we later discussed our lists of favorite plays seen during our Canadian adventure, this one kept rising to the top two.
And as an added bonus, we got to participate in a post-show discussion that included the "flower girl" and her alter-ego, the violinist.
