Road trip with Mesa
Many dream of the perfect road-trip … where the joy is not about the destination, it is all about the journey to get there ... and the fun along the way.
Theatre Orangeville’s final show of the season begins rehearsals this week, taking audiences on a road trip as they journey down to Arizona in the engaging inter-generational comedy, Mesa, directed by David Nairn.
Actors Thomas Hauff (one of the stars of the Academy-award nominated film, Away From Her) and Andy Pogson (Theatre Orangeville’s Test Drive) as they bring to life these rowdy road-worthy characters. The best road trips are those in which people do not plan their stops - they simply stop when they feel like it, eat when they’re hungry, and then sleep when they’re tired. However, Bud and Paul have very different ideas of what makes a good road trip.
Bud wants to stop at the same Denny’s and Motel 6’s that he has been going to for over 40 years. Paul dreams of a road-trip of new adventure every day.
Mesa runs from April 10 to 27 at Theatre Orangeville. For tickets call 519-942-3423 or www.theatreorangeville.ca.
