Winnipeg Fringe: Almost an Evening l Lungs


Almost an Evening
July 18 to July 28
MTC Warehouse, 140 Rupert Avenue, The Tom Hendry Warehouse

Written by Ethan Coen
Starring - Claire Morrison, James Firby, Murat Ates, William O’Donnell, William Jordan, Kevin Houle, Liz Madden
Directed by Knorman
Tech Wizardry by Matt Gillies
Poster Design by James Van Niekerk

It’s full steam ahead for Naughty Sailboat EMTC (“Kafka in Love” 4 STARS, “August Strindberg’s Flying Circus” 4 STARS) as they mount a series of short plays written by Academy Award winner Ethan Coen, co-creator of Fargo, Oh Brother Where Art Thou 
and The Big Lebowski.

Duelling gods, bungled espionage and oddly existential waiting rooms blend into a darkly hilarious almost evening that will leave urbane theatre goers happily hungry.

Giving birth to a baby. The hope of our species. The expression of a couple's love. 
And 10,000 tonnes of CO2.

Join Theatre by the River for the Canadian premiere of Duncan Macmillan's razor-sharp, visceral look inside a hip modern couple's hope and hell.
