Dying City
By Christopher Shinn
A year after her husband’s death in Iraq, Kelly, a young therapist, receives an unexpected visit from his identical twin brother at her New York apartment. A topical examination of the allure and the effects of violence on the individual and beyond, Dying City is directed by Jim Guedo and stars Aaron Hursh and Heather Morrison.
Fire in the Hole Productions, led by Saskatoon-based actor Aaron Hursh, is committed to producing plays that culturally and socially engage us into developing a more compassionate understanding of one other as human beings. Its intention is to consistently and professionally produce work that challenges the artists involved and the audience members who attend to consider the effects of the choices that we make politically, economically and socially. Christopher Shinn's Dying City will be Fire in the Hole's inaugural production.

Les Médecins de Molière (Molière’s Doctors)
by Jean-Baptiste Poquelin
Co-produced by Théâtre la Catapulte and Théâtre français de Toronto
The worst patients are those who don’t want to be cured. A group of young actors on tour perform a selection of subtly interwoven scenes from three plays written by Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, a.k.a. Molière: Le Medecin volant (The Flying Doctor) (1645), L’Amour médecin (The Doctor of Love) (1665), and Le Médecin malgré lui (The Doctor in Spite of Himself) (1666). There is some question, of course, of feigned illness and disguised or impostor doctors.
Directed by: Jean Stéphane Roy
Cast: Renée Aubin, Marc Bendavid, Chanda Legroulx, Vincent Poirier, Pierre Simpson, Nicolas Van Burek

Flip Side presents…
BAM! A Burlesque Show
MATURE CONTENT WARNING
Flip Side is back and class is in session – Burlesque 101 that is - hosted by Professors Tuesday and Duke, who’ll teach you all the tricks of the trade! This bizarre, humorous and even educational show will bump and grind its way into your heart. Unlike anything you’ve seen before (unless you caught the prequels – Bada Bing and Bada Boom) this is an outrageous show you won’t want to miss!
Flip Side is dedicated to performing outrageous theatre for adults. Our mandate is to shake up the traditions of live theatre - to see what’s on the flip side. We believe that theatre is not a dying art - it is a means of bringing drama off the page, out of the screen and into the lives of young adult audiences today. Through our performances we wish to reach new audiences ages 16-35 that have never attended theatre but have attended monster truck rallies or at least a pub crawl. This is why we handpick outrageous shows ~fringe theatre~ to be a part of the LIVE FIVE Season.
