TWO MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT

WE ARE BACK BABY!
WE'VE MISSED LIVE THEATRE AND WE ARE SO EXCITED TO BE PRESENTING IT AGAIN AT OUR THE PARKDALE HOME OF INDEPENDENT THEATRE!
In association with the The Assembly Theatre & The Spadina Avenue Gang, we are proud to present the world premiere of Two Minutes to Midnight by award-winning Toronto playwright, Michael Ross Albert (The Huns, Best of Toronto Fringe Festival; Tough Jews, Dora Award nomination - Outstanding New Play).
Jack and Tracy really need a vacation, but everything at their all-inclusive tropical getaway has been a disappointment. It’s rained the entire trip, their social media influence hasn’t translated to real revenue yet, and an inbound nuclear missile might be about to annihilate them and everyone nearby. With the world-- and their relationship-- on the brink of collapse, the bickering couple stares down oblivion together, confronting the illusions that kept them together, and finding hope for their future in the chaos of imminent destruction.
