I'm glad to see that "Doc" by Sharon Pollock, has extended its run to Sept 25. It's a terrific piece of theatre featuring a superb cast.
A woman comes home to visit her ailing father, a doctor in Nova Scotia who has,to the detriment of his family, devoted his whole life to his patients. A series of Plexiglas dividers on stage serve to separate rooms, characters, and time as the actors go back and forth over the years to re-examine their lives together. R.H Thompson is wonderful as the lead character. Jane Spidell, as his wife, gives a stunning performance. The rest of the cast is excellent. An amazing play!
Two Acts, one intermission.
