Soulless

April 7 – 24, 2004

At Performance Works, Granville Island

by Aaron Bushkowsky

Bob is a downtown developer with a lot on his mind. Darren is the lawyer Bob so desperately needs. Gerald has a personal interest in photography; he works for Bob, or so Bob thinks. Rachael works at a gallery and no longer finds Darren so amusing – but Bob, well that’s another matter entirely. Claire? Well, being homeless can make you somewhat of an irritant. Set in present-day Vancouver, Soulless is a tale of redemption at the crossroads of money, longing and contested ground.

The production earned six Jessie Richardson Theatre Award nominations, including the Sydney Risk Prize for Outstanding Original Script, and won in the category of Outstanding Lighting Design (John Webber).
