Aqua Books: Above the Empress of China


As part of Best of Fest 2010, the Winnipeg Fringe hit Above the Empress of China, starring Casey Shapira, Delf Gravert, and Cheryl Soluk, will be performed at Aqua Books on August 31.  

The play begins at 7:30 p. m. and runs to 8:30 p. m.
Tickets are $10.


Above the Empress of China, originally performed in 1994, had a warm reception at this year’s Fringe.  Uptown Magazine said it was "truly funny and intelligent throughout...  excellently acted... well worth seeing.”  Audiences agreed. 

The action takes place in an apartment above a Chinese restaurant, where a young woman tries to put her life back together after an auto accident strips her boyfriend of his memory.  

Written by Ross McMillan (Less Than Kind and The Saddest Music in the World) and Sharon Bajer (Molly’s Veil).  
Directed by Eileen Longfield.


Have a great day.  How can you miss - you're in Winnipeg!
