MISSION

“You can become a part of it. A part of the world. You can take your place. Will you come with me?”

Akayah Francis thinks she’s dreaming when a man comes to see her with a strange proposition. A chance to reach the stars. To break the cycle. Is this the trip of a lifetime, or just a bad trip?

Meanwhile, a father walks out on his family.
Meanwhile, a child looks to the stars.
And, on the 259 to Edmonton Green, someone slowly slips away.

A Offie-nominated play about making amends, and trying to make the journey to a whole new world.

 

Mission is a surreal and hypnotic whirlwind, with a glaringly dark message unravelling under the bright, starry backdrop.
