Event:
Tuesdays & Sundays Book Launch
Monday, July 30, 2007Long ago, two innocents fell in love.
Now in limbo, they awake to reveal what really happened –
what lasts an evening, a few months, what dies, what remains forever …
Tuesdays & Sundays is a multi award-winning play inspired by true events from PEI, 1887. Written and performed by emerging creators Daniel Arnold and Medina Hahn, Tuesdays & Sundays premiered at Theatre Network’s “NextFest 2000” (directed and dramaturged by Wojtek Kozlinski), then went on to a sold out Canadian Fringe Tour, rave reviews at the Edinburgh Festival, and an Overall Production Award at the New York Fringe. This production has now been presented by over 15 theatre companies throughout the world including Canada’s National Arts Centre and has been included on Top Ten of the Year lists in New York, Toronto, Edmonton, and Vancouver.
Arnold and Hahn have adapted Tuesdays & Sundays to the radio for CBC and BBC, and it has just been optioned for a feature film by Vancouver producer Clare Hodge ( Love and Other Dilemmas ), with co-production from UK’s Slate Films (Academy Award-winning The Last King of Scotland).
“A wonderful, haunting play … it packs an emotional wallop that is reminiscent of more straightforward works like Brian Friel’s Lovers and even Our Town. You’ll want to clap till forever.”
– New York Sun, BEST OF 2006 List
“This show is like a rich tapestry – everything about it is delicately, intricately beautiful. …Full of warmth, humor, and emotional complexity – Arnold and Hahn give a note-perfect rendering of a note-perfect script.”
– Georgia Straight
“Outstanding … finely etched jewel about two impetuous lovers. Don’t miss it.”
