The next few weeks will be very exciting for Mary and me and the whole French family. Factory Theatre’s production of Salt-Water Moon is in previews right now, and it opens on Friday. Next week, Jitters will begin previewing at Soulpepper. We’re delighted to have two of David’s plays running at the same time at two of the best theatres in the city.
First up, Salt-Water Moon at Factory! Ravi Jain, the director, says the team has been having a wonderful time in rehearsals. Toronto audiences will remember Ravi from A Brimful of Asha, his funny, warm, and candid family play — in which Ravi appeared opposite his mother. Ravi is also the artistic director of the Why Not Theatre company.
The two actors who star in Salt-Water Moon are Kawa Ada, recently seen in Soulpepper’s Accidental Death of an Anarchist, and Mayko Nguyen, perhaps best known for her role as Mayko Tran on the television series ReGenesis.
Here are photos of the two stars of the show, along with a snapshot I took of Mary, posing by the Factory billboard for the play. Can’t wait to see it!
