Theatre Inconnu presents:

The Trutch Street Women

By Ellen Arrand

June 20 – July 7

Theatre Inconnu is pleased to announce a new initiative: The New Play Series.

Our plan is to showcase – each spring - a new play by a local
playwright. The plays chosen will have either won recognition through
a major play writing competition, and/or gone through a previous
workshop process under professional supervision.

Our inaugural play for this initiative is the Trutch Street Women.
This play, by local playwright and published novelist Ellen Arrand was
a finalist in the 2006 Theatre BC National Play-writing Competition,
where it under went a workshop process at the “new Play Festival in
Kamloops. It was subsequently work shopped at Theatre One in Nanaimo.
It is a moving story that captures the passion of the feminist
movement in the early 1970’s, as a group of young single mothers band
together for friendship and support as they challenge the status quo.
Directed by Inconnu Artistic Director Clayton Jevne, the cast includes
Meara Tubman-Broeren, Lindsay Alley, Zoe Pappas-Acreman, Ellen Arrand,
Taryn Von Niessen, Hannah Johnson and Kayvon Hanlan.
