Danny and the Deep Blue Sea (Pacific Theatre)
It’s been a while since I have had the time to attend a production by Pacific Theatre. That said, they’ve always been extremely solid partners with me and I love their theatre. And I am thrilled to hear that they’re putting together a production of Danny and the Deep Blue Sea. It’s a profound and challenging piece of theatre, and I wouldn’t expect any less of Pacific Theatre. With Jason Goode directing, and featuring Lori Triolo and Aleks Paunovic, this promises to be an excellent performance.
Playing January 20-February 4 Wednesday – Saturday at 8pm with 2pm matinee on Saturdays at Pacific Theatre, 1440 W 12th Ave. For tickets ($16.50-29.50, HST incl) call 604-731-5518 or buy tickets online.
In a rundown bar in the Bronx, two strangers meet at the end of their ropes. Haunted by the past and trapped in the violence of the present, Danny and Roberta begin the ruthless act of revealing themselves – a brutal exposure that threatens to change everything. Explosively funny and surprisingly tender, a deeply affecting study of alienation and the redemptive power of love.
