BirdLand Theatre to Present the Canadian Premiere of GRUESOME PLAYGROUND INJURIES, 5/2-13
BirdLand Theatre will present the Canadian premiere production of Pulitzer Prize Finalist Rajiv Joseph's dark romantic saga GRUESOME PLAYGROUND INJURIES, playing at The Theatre Centre, 1087 Queen Street West, Toronto, Ontario, from May 2 to 13, 2012. Press Opening is Thursday May 3, 2012 at 7:30 pm. Alternate Press Review Date is Friday May 4 at 7:30 pm.
Gruesome Playground Injuries explores the cost of wounded friendships. Over the course of 30 years, the lives of Doug and Kayleen intersect at the most bizarre intervals, leading the two childhood friends to compare scars and the physical calamities that keep drawing them together. But what responsibility do we bear toward others, and how far can one person go to heal another's wounds?
Directed by Stefan Dzeparoski, the roles of Doug and Kayleen are played by Peter Mooney (TV: Rookie Blue, Falcon Beach, Camelot. Theatre: After Miss Julie, Our Town) and Janet Porter (Theatre: Assassins, The Last Days of Judas Iscariot, Elora Gorge).
