The cast and crew of Terrace Little Theatre's "The Drawer Boy" have been forced to abandon their plans for a festival performance at the Skeena Zone Drama Festival this year.
"We are devastated", says director Marianne Brorup Weston. Due to an actor requiring surgery that turned out to take him out of commission for the immediate future, the project was halted last week when a search for a replacement actor failed.
Not one to be deterred, Brorup Weston is taking the remaining cast and crew forward with a smaller, but equally exciting project, the classic Edward Albee play, "The Zoo Story".
"A stumbling block can be turned into a stepping stone for bigger things if the talent and will is there", adds Brorup Weston. I have two incredibly talented actors and an amazing crew who deserve a chance to shine." She cites a supportive TLT Executive for giving her the encouragement and the chance to move ahead.
In the meantime,"The Drawer Boy" will go on Brorup Weston's back burner.
"When the time is right, it will come together."
