FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Marcia Brown Productions Announces the Long‑Awaited Premiere of I Need To Know My Father 2

A powerful dramedy that uncovers family secrets, tests faith, and brings long‑awaited closure to a beloved story

Marcia Brown Productions proudly announces the premiere of I Need To Know My Father 2, the highly anticipated sequel and emotional conclusion to the original hit stage production that captivated multi‑generational audiences across Canada and the Caribbean. Written by acclaimed playwright Marcia Brown, this new installment continues the story without missing a beat—delivering the same signature blend of heartfelt drama and laugh‑out‑loud comedy that made the first production a fan favourite.

A Story Audiences Have Been Waiting Years to See Conclude

The original production introduced audiences to 16‑year‑old Lisa Perkins, the daughter of Sarah Perkins and Jonathan Bonavich Jr. Their teenage romance was cut short when Jonathan Jr.’s mother, Claire Bonavich, rejected Sarah for not meeting the family’s social standards. As a result, Lisa was denied the right to know her father.

But destiny intervened. In a dramatic twist, Lisa discovered the truth—and ultimately saved Jonathan Jr.’s life when she became the only match for a critical blood transfusion after he suffered a stomach aneurysm.

New Revelations, New Conflicts, and a Family at a Crossroads

In I Need To Know My Father 2, the emotional stakes rise even higher. Sarah, who left for Canada when Lisa was three and has spent years supporting her daughter and aging parents from afar, returns home unexpectedly. Lisa is overjoyed, believing she finally has both parents in her life. But Sarah’s return raises new questions:

  • Does Sarah truly want to rebuild the family she left behind
  • Can old wounds heal, or will buried secrets tear them apart
  • Will this reunion bring the fairy‑tale ending Lisa dreams of—or expose truths that change everything

The sequel promises to deliver long‑awaited closure while boldly exploring themes of identity, forgiveness, generational trauma, and the resilience of love.

A Production Rooted in Heart, Culture, and Community

Marcia Brown’s work has long been celebrated for its authenticity, humour, and emotional depth. I Need To Know My Father 2 continues that legacy, offering audiences a story that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.

“This production is about truth—how it liberates, how it hurts, and how it ultimately heals,” says playwright Marcia Brown. “Audiences who have waited years for this conclusion will not be disappointed.”
