By Colleen Murphy

Previews: April 1 & 2, 2025
Opening: April 3, 2025
Closing: April 20, 2025

Touching on her working class roots in Quebec and Northern Ontario, Murphy’s play JUPITER unfolds over the course of four days in the livingroom of the Hutchinson family and their dog. The humorous and not so humorous events of those four days unlock the family’s future which plays out in the middle of the present. It’s a universal notion that the present troubles the future, but then what? Does the future also offer a chance at forgiveness? Do we have the courage to take that chance, or do we turn away and reach for another drink? Do we close our ears when our children give us back the faith we lost in ourselves, or do we listen. Do we take our secrets to the grave or decide to tell the truth? A full-bodied family drama featuring a beautiful dog.
