Performers Wanted for Production of "Halo"

Kentville, NS, Canada
ID: 290367Exp: 8/19/2025
Description:

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Seeking performers for production of "Halo". More details are below. About the play: When an image of Jesus appears on the side of a Tim Hortons restaurant in Nately, Nova Scotia, life is forever changed. The town’s inhabitants are challenged to ask difficult questions about faith, life, and love with sometimes moving, sometimes hilarious results. Complicating the matter, of course, are the more mundane questions of whether this appearance is a miracle, an accident or quite possibly even a hoax.At the centre of this wickedly entertaining play resides the more existential and personal question of what has happened to our notion of meaning and ethics in the strip-mall culture of concrete and crass competition which has replaced a more pastoral and rural life of care for the earth, the cycle of the seasons and its festivals, and the blessings of renewal in the family. Has religion lost the ability to mediate these two conditions, or did it ever really have that power? Halo is a brilliant examination of the need to believe and the power of forgiveness. Additional information: EIGHT Performances in November 2025. Evenings November 14, 15, 21, 22, 28, 29. Matinees November 16, 23. If you're interested, please apply.
