Solos, duos, trios and all of the above. (Eugene Martynec  on laptops pictured above can’t make it this time). Why is the evening called €œBehind the Kiln€? ­ Tanis explains: “If you leave wood to dry behind the kiln, it warps into all kinds of strange unpredictable shapes.”

HamiltonBusStop_NickGreen_Ellen_RayHennessy_4461c800.jpgHamilton Bus Stop“, a new play written and directed by Sky Gilbert, will be performed at Artword Artbar, 15 Colbourne Street, Hamilton for a two-week run Nov 18 to 28. Tickets at the bar or reserve 905-543-8512.
The one-act play is a real life downtown Hamilton story about Cookie, a nice lady who makes catpins, and Retribution a male hooker, who meet, by chance, on a rainy afternoon in a bus stop in the Hammer core. How different are these two people? Can they even chat at all? Or do they, perhaps, have more in common than you might imagine?
Ellen-Ray_Hennessy_c.jpgnick_green.jpgHamilton Bus Stop stars Ellen-Ray Hennessy a veteran brilliant who was nominated for a Dora in Sky’s play about Ayn Rand where she played Ayn Rand ­ The Emotionalists 2000, and Nick Green a young guy fresh off the boat from Calgary, with stage management by Steve Newman , one of the founders of Theatre Aquarius.
