PS8626.A373 G38 2011<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publisher’s Synopsis (From its website)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes surviving in dark times involves becoming part of the darkness\u2026 gas<\/em> and dust<\/em>, two plays about war, introduce a powerful new voice in Canadian theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A highly theatrical, violent, and ultimately moving examination of the young men and women currently fighting in Iraq, gas<\/em> follows two American soldiers who kill two Iraqis and dump their bodies in a bombed-out building. This story is inter-cut with that of Rocky, a young soldier who goes AWOL after refusing to escort a tanker full of contaminated diesel to another military base. The play examines the collision of these two stories, the tragic aftermath. gas<\/em> is a vibrant and important play that seeks to challenge and provoke its audience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Nails<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Winnipeg: Scirocco Drama, 2019.
PS8626.A373 N35 2019<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publisher’s Synopsis (From its website)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ally and Josh spend every summer with their father as he goes from small town to small town, working for a construction company in America. But this summer is different. This is the summer they grow up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nails<\/em> is a play about family. It is a play about faith. And it captures a world of freedom and extremism in all directions; love and cruelty exist within the same space here. And sometimes they feel like the same thing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
