by John Murrell

heart of this charming and hilarious play. A tightrope walker of modern
times, he is engaged in a balancing act between the comic nature of his
existence and the tragic tone of his solitude.

For Hire: emotional stunt man, audience for everyday people,
professional finisher of sentences, ego enhancer, despairer, receiver of
packages and long-distance lover.

With: Paul Fauteux, Carmen Grant and Michael Hughes. Lighting: David =
Perreault Ninacs; Costumes: Megan Mitchell Downey; Stage management:
Seamus Ryan.
