This is Cancer
Production info:
Company: PKF Productions
Directed by: Rebecca Northan
Written by: Bruce Horak & Rebecca Northan
Starring: Bruce Horak, Emma Brager
Bruce Horak's strange and beloved show returns to Edmonton to introduce us, once again, to the ugly but suave manifestation of one of humanity's most fearsome diseases. His dawning apprehension that we hate him is played with expert comic turn, but what really stands out is how much the show is about us, those gathered to watch it: when the little details about our own losses, as well as Horak's, start to emerge together, the show transcends theatre to become a heartbreakingly communal rumination on loss and love.
