Time: All Day
Location: : Chilliwack campus at Canada Education Park
The University of the Fraser Valley Theatre Department and UFV’s Ensemble Project Class are proud to present The Romeo Initiative, by Trina Davies. For the first time, experience a UFV Theatre production produced and presented entirely by students. Performances are January 14-16 at 7:30 pm and January 17 at 2:00 pm and will take place at the CEP Performance Studio at the University of the Fraser Valley’s Chilliwack Campus.
The Romeo Initiative, by Trina Davies, is a story of love, lies, and intrigue, set against the backdrop of the Cold War politics of 1970s Germany. Taking place at a time when the population of women greatly outnumbered that of the men, the story follows Karin, a secretary in West Germany, and her relationship with the mysterious Markus. Told from alternating perspectives, the play asks: can true love emerge from an artificial environment?
The University of the Fraser Valley’s Ensemble Project was created to give students the chance to learn what putting on a theatrical production really entails. The class selected a play, assigned production roles, and proceeded to produce, design, rehearse, build, and manage every aspect of the show. The Romeo Initiative has become a labour of love, the result of giving sixteen theatre students the power to create and present a show of their very own and participate in a unique collaborative process.
