The Cultch presents Penny Plain
Thursday, 17/11/11 08:00 - 10:00
Created and performed by Ronnie Burkett

Penny Plain is blind, but she hears plenty about the state of things and the fate of mankind. And so she decides to sit in her overstuffed chair, nevermore to venture outside, waiting for the world to end. When her companion dog Geoffrey leaves to live as a man, Penny’s end-of-days vigil is interrupted by survivalists, a serial killer, a cross-dressing banker, talking dogs and mysterious strangers seeking sanctuary. Part gothic thriller, part apocalyptic drawing room comedy, Penny Plain shows the funny and chilling consequences as Mother Earth cleans house and reclaims her ground.

Commissioned by the Citadel Theatre (Edmonton) and co-commissioned by the National Arts Centre.

Latecomers will not be admitted. This production is intended for adult audiences only, ages 14+. Children under the age of 14 will not be admitted.
