Fredericton, NB – Theatre New Brunswick is pleased to announce that two short plays have been selected from among TNB New Voices’ inaugural call for submissions, and will be featured as Opening Acts in our 2010-2011 season. The Truth is a Hard Flat Surface by Bruce Allen Lynch is a hard-hitting, fist-flying drama that recreates Yvon Durelle’s 1958 bid for the Heavy Weight World Championship, and how he got there from Baie-Sainte-Anne New Brunswick. The Marketeer by Step Taylor begins early one Saturday morning as an active, hungry Frederictonian eagerly introduces a friend from Western Canada to the Boyce Farmers’ Market. The meeting, however, does not go as planned…Special mention should also be given to The Smokey Mokes by Rick Merrill, a strong contender this year, and which is currently under consideration as an Opening Act for the following season.

Fredericton – The public will have a rare chance to see a sneak peek of a new musical, when the Fredericton Playhouse hosts a workshop presentation of its commissioned play “Bricklin” later this month.
In July, the Fredericton Playhouse announced that it had commissioned a new musical play depicting the story of the Bricklin -- the failed automobile manufacturing venture headed by American promoter Malcolm Bricklin and financed by the Hatfield government of the early-mid seventies. “It’s a made-in-New Brunswick story about optimism, individual determination, and good old fashioned ego; and it takes place at a very interesting time in our history,” claims Playhouse Executive Director Tim Yerxa. “It has all the trappings of a great piece of theatre -- there are big dreams, risk takers, a sexy sports car, heated political controversy, and pulsating disco music. What else could you ask for in a musical?”
