Coal miner Lauchie Macdonald lives a humdrum existence but his world turns upside down when the vivacious Liza dances into his life. The awkward courtship is sealed with a big win at bingo, until Lauchie’s daredevil twin brother, Rory, bursts back into the scene. Two actors bring a whole town of characters to vivid life, and a real story begins... a wry spinster, sonorous priest, reformed party girl, and cantankerous Cape Breton matriarch, are all witnesses to a twenty-year interrupted love story. Adapted from his short story by Sheldon Currie (Margaret’s Museum).

“A quirky, engaging, bittersweet yet humourous tale…
brilliant theatre at its very best.”
— Greymouth Evening Star, New Zealand

“A moving tale of patience, loyalty and love.
Highly Recommended.”
— The Toronto Star
