River Run Centre will present Jake’s Gift on Oct 25 at 8pm in the Co-operators Hall.
Written and performed by Vancouver’s Julia Mackey, the play has been the toast of theatre festivals from coast to coast.
The play is a comedy-drama about a cantankerous WWII veteran who reluctantly returns to Juno Beach for the 60th anniversary of D-Day. While there, he meets Isabelle, a precocious 10-year-old from the local village, whose inquisitive nature and charm challenge the old veteran to confront some long ignored ghosts.
Jake’s Gift tickets are on sale now through the River Run Centre box office, and range from $23 to $25.
All tickets may be purchased online at www.riverrun.ca, by phone at 519-763-3000 or at the box office in Guelph.
