The harvest season arrives early in Drayton Ontario this
year with Drayton Entertainment’s production of HARVEST. This comedic play set in farm country is also
a testament to Drayton Entertainment’s commitment to cultivating great talent, which
you quickly notice as they only have two actors take the stage to play a plethora
of characters during this show. Each
character is distinguished by either hats, scarves or eye wear which means the
actors had to really dive into the characters by changing vocal stylings and physical
stature. Without any real costume changes
this show keeps your watching to see who is portraying who on the stage.
There Is a Healthy Helping of Comedic Timing In Harvest
The story is based on a farming couple approaching their
Autumn Years and deciding how to best move away from their rural area. Instead of selling the house on the family
farm they decide to sell the farm but keep the house as a rental property. When a nomad airline pilot convinces them
that their farm is his top choice to plant some roots, they quickly accept him
as a tenant. This is how the comedy of
errors begins.
When we attended the
Media Debut of Harvest, the couple that the play was based on was also in
attendance, making it an extra special show!
