WORLD PREMIERE: Ominous Sounds at the River Crossing; or, Another Fucking Dinner Party Play by Jason Sherman

Touchstone Theatre presents its World Premiere production of Ominous Sounds at the River Crossing; or, Another Fucking Dinner Party Play by Governor General award-winning playwright Jason Sherman at the Performance Works stage on Granville Island, March 6 - 13 (Opening Night March 9).

ABOUT THE PLAY

Six actors stand in the hot glow of the stage lights. Restless, bewildered, on edge. Another fucking dinner party story is about to begin but something’s different – the cultural tectonics are shifting, a new world is emerging, and the stage as usual is under siege.

As new stories break ground, old tropes tumble down into the chasm. The real question is: when this surge of change abates, what – and who – will rise from the rubble?

Pirandello meets Brecht meets the Twilight Zone. Ethics and art collide in this timely, darkly funny, and existential play by acclaimed playwright Jason Sherman.
