Teatro La Quindicina - Whiplash Weekend

Varscona Theatre (10329 83 Avenue) Edmonton Alberta Ongoing through Saturday, October 26, 2013 Screwball Comedy at Top Speed! A hit in the previous century, one of Teatro's pioneering screwball comedies returns to the stage with all the velocity one might expect from a play whose characters include a champion swimmer, a race car driver, and serial divorcee. Last seen in 1997, this enchantingly knockabout escapade depicts a mad society weekend in Cape Cod, circa 1966. It's a play rife with romantic misunderstandings and and deliberate deceptions, with cast headed by Belinda Cornish, Andrew MacDonald-Smith, and Shannon Blanchet, all variously pursuing or pursued by Mat Busby, Kendra Connor, and Vincent Forcier. "Everybody dance! In THIS corner!" Tickets are $28 for Adults and $23 for Students and Seniors 65+, plus applicable fees. Tuesday is Pay What You Can at the door. Saturday 2pm matinees are $16 plus fees. Written by Stewart Lemoine.
