KJC is pleased to present the premiere production of Kingston playwright John Lazarus' newest play The Grandkid starring Sam Malkin and Sophia Fabiili. Directed by Brett Christopher, the play is a sweet comedy about a 19-year old girl who moves in with her Zadie when she decides to attend the same university where he teaches. It's an 'odd couple' for the new millennium and deals humourously with the generation gap and their relationship to Judaism. KJC is hosting the performance on February 14 at the Baby Grand and providing a reception at intermission. Please support this fundraising initiative by attending this entertaining evening among friends.
Tickets: $30 per person (includes refreshments). No reserved seating.
Tickets are limited! To purchase your tickets contact Janice Barling (613-549 3435 or barl...@kos.net)
Please send cheque payable to KJC to arrive no later than February 10th to Janice Barling - 42 Traymoor Avenue, Kingston, ON, K7L 4K8.
You will pick up your tickets on the night of the performance.
