Darren Burkett News

What a difference a year makes. In The Boys Upstairs Equity Co-op's production of Glory Days, a musical by Nick Blaemire and James Gardiner, four best friends meet up a year after graduating high school. The plan is to catch up, relive some of those good old (glory) days, and pick their friendships up right where they dropped off. Turns out that's not so easy. With a soaring pop-rock score, Glory Days is a poignant and witty coming of age story about friends searching for understanding and validation as they face the consequences of growing up.

Starring some of Vancouver's hottest musical theatre talent, Darren Burkett, Adam Charles, Brandyn Eddy, and Colin Sheen, Glory Days is directed by actress and up-and-coming director Sara-Jeanne Hosie. Assistant directed by Mack Gordon. Musical direction by Nico Rhodes. Set and lighting designed by Ian Schmipf.
