“Seniors Sharing Stories” About Retirement Playing in Ottawa March 26-27
“A Circle of Time” is Burning Passions Theatre’s second “Seniors Sharing Stories” theatrical presentation. It’s rare when the lives of seniors are featured in the news or in entertainment, so for two years, this project has brought together community elders to create new works expressing their hopes, dreams, and challenges as they enter the fabled “third chapter” of their lives.
The new play, written and directed by Laurel Smith, explores the lives of those entering retirement as part of the sandwich generation, women juggling the needs of adult children and elderly parents while trying to chart a course for their own lives in the post 9-to-5 world. Filled with humour and heart-touching moments, A Circle of Time, an hour-long play followed by an audience talkback, plays in Ottawa March 26 and 27 at 2 and 7 pm at CRC Rideau-Rockcliffe CRC, 815 St Laurent Blvd. (2nd floor Drama Room), and pay what you wish tickets are now on sale at https://2831283.na.ticketsearch.com/sales/salesevent/18381
