A charming, 90's, new Canadian love story.

DIRECTED BY GINA PUNTIL

It’s 1993 Romeo Alvarez, is on his way to university, driving his hatchback from his home in Scarborough, ON, to Vancouver, BC. Having been guilted by his mom into stopping to visit family, Romeo pulls off the TransCanada to drop in on rural Saskatchewan (where she first landed from the Philippines as a nurse some twenty years ago). As he sets about fulfilling his awkward family duty knocking on doors of relatives he’s never met, he discovers Bea, a girl his age whose history is woven to his own, though neither knows it. Set entirely on one accidentally romantic evening on the Canadian prairies, this play starts as a random encounter, and ends with a dance under a fateful moon.
