Playing Oct. 29 - Nov. 15, 2014
Written and composed by John Gray in collaboration with Eric Peterson.
One of the best-known and most-produced plays in Canadian theatre history, Billy Bishop Goes to War is both a sweeping musical drama and a deceptively simple two-man show. It both celebrates heroism and questions the emptiness of fame. A memory play and a love-letter to Canadian history, Billy Bishop Goes to War is raucous and haunting, hilarious and heartbreaking and an evening of theatre you will never forget. Winner of the Governor-General's Award, the Chalmers Award and the Los Angeles Drama Critics Award.
