ASPIRIN & ELEPHANTS is a hilarious romantic comedy with six very strong roles bursting with the kind of witty dialogue actors love and audiences rave about. This award- winning comedy deals with an upscale 60ish mother and father who take their two married daughters and sons-in-law on a North Sea cruise to celebrate their fortieth anniversary. The cruise was Mother’s idea, who hopes to get her husband’s spirits and also his libido raised after a recent heart attack. (His heart attack explains the title of the play. He jokes about his coronary, which felt like an elephant sitting on his chest. Now he has to take an aspirin every day.)<\/p>\n

What Mom doesn’t know is, her daughters are having their own share of big time problems with their husbands. Before the cruise is over, the courses of all three marriages change drastically and a father bonds forever with his ego challenged daughter. “It’s easy to see why this laugh-filled, emotionally moving comedy about marriage, family relationships and overcoming life’s reverses has enjoyed record-breaking runs in theatre after theatre.”<\/p>\n

Every day at Newcombe\u2019s Pub, nestled on the shores of the Northumberland Strait, is pretty much the same as the day before; and the regulars like it that way. Certainly it is a comfort to Matthew; until Elizabeth arrives in the neighbourhood, that is, and decides to try out the local establishment. Elizabeth has an unsettling impact on the Nova Scotia man, but then so does his ex, Sylvie. The Pub staff are no help at all, and it seems the resident gambler, Samuel, has also caught the attention of the newcomer. It\u2019s not surprising that Matthew doesn\u2019t know which way to turn as Elizabeth\u2019s year-long visit unfolds.<\/p>\n

The Fork on the Left<\/strong>\u00a0returns from it’s Premiere run during the 2014-15 Season at Bedford Players for three more very special shows. \u00a0See the details here…<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
