I'm very happy that our venue will be the Refinery. It's a great space where I've been involved with various performances, including our last Fringe show (2003) and the first year of the Short Cuts festival (2014).

Noted Canadian playwright John Lazarus ( http://www.johnlazarus.ca/ ) selected plays for the Saskatchewan Playwrights Centre's 2015 Spring Festival of New Plays (the third time that I've had a script chosen for that festival). 
Here's part of the written feedback that he gave me about "The Narrow Path":  "I chose this play as one of my favourites from among those submitted because it addresses a very current, very hot topic, and does so with sympathy for both sides of this contentious issue. You make Robert likeable and sympathetic and you treat him respectfully."
