The Mail Order Bride
by Robert Clinton
April 21– March 8, 1998
As spare and as hauntingly beautiful as the prairie landscape that spawned it. - The Citizen
“During the War, things used to be… Everything was for the last time, and that made it the first time each time.”
Rich with humor and the bittersweet realities of a time gone by, The Mail Order Bride is a vivid, moving and often surprising evocation of the true nature of family and love. Part of Plays in Progress. Winner of 1987/88 Alberta Culture Playwriting Competition.
