Typecastress              

Friday           

Roxy Theatre 

Saskatoon has a long, storied history of talented people and now it’s time to add Bobbi-Lee Jones to that list. She’s created a brand new piece of musical theatre that examines the joy, excitement and challenges of aspiring women breaking into the world of theatre. Typecastress is a performance that examines the gender imbalance and inequities in the theatre world. We join Nora as she is called in for her big audition and she remembers all it took to get her there. The celebration of this work is happening in two parts, just in time for International Women’s Day. The first will be a screening of a film version of the musical (March 11) shot this summer. The second part will be a live stage performance of the musical on the BackStage Stage at the Remai Arts Centre (April 5 – 9). Tickets for the film premiere are $15.
