THE CULL: Public Lab

By Michele Riml and Michael St. John Smith Directed by Peter Pasyk Dramaturged by Ted Dykstra Starring Tom Barnett, Christopher Morris, Jenny Young When a group of long-time friends gathers for an intimate 25th anniversary dinner celebration as a forest fire rages out of control in the nearby mountains of southeastern BC. When an unexpected gift transforms a discussion about the local wolf cull into a heated argument over economic inequality, conflicting values within the group arise, threatening to derail the celebration and test the true nature of their friendships. The Cull contrasts the dynamics of human self-interest with the instinctive communal behaviour of wolves… turning this particular dinner party into a night of “eat or be eaten.” ------------- Performances Nightly at 7:30pm - Doors at 7:00pm - Please note that due to the intimate nature of our venue, we are unable to accommodate latecomers.
