A LOVE STORY IN THE FACE OF A PANDEMIC AND AN INVASION.Based on real-life events, this intercontinental love story from award-winning Métis playwright Matthew MacKenzie and his wife, acclaimed Ukrainian actress Mariya Khomutova, interweaves the story of their Covid courtship with the personal impact of the war in Ukraine. Their enchanting narrative captures the unbreakable bonds formed in crisis and the transcendent resilience of love.
“ Tender, funny and truthful, this is one of the best shows of the year...[Khomutova’s] performance is clear, deeply felt and intelligent.
She’s an exquisite actor.” - Glenn Sumi, GO AHEAD SUMI
