About the Play

Arjun and Rhiannon find themselves in a hotel room in Victoria, BC, excited to start a new chapter in their lives. As we watch them navigate their present moment... with a little help from Doctor Who, we learn about the struggles of their past, and the uncertainty of the future that still awaits them. 

This world premiere of a new one-act play by Jim Moran is directed by David Hsieh, and will be performed by two different sets of actors, our BLUE and GREEN casts, through the run of the show.
