Killcreek at Toronto Fringe 2013
About
Killcreek is a gripping drama about two orphaned siblings whose father/daughter relationship is challenged by adulthood, guilt, and alcohol abuse. When the town reopens the mine that killed their father, their relationship is put to the test.
Description
A review from Cate McKim of "Life With More Cowbell."
Although Killcreek is set in a small Montana mining town in 1951, the universal theme of the American dream turned nightmare – with its human toll in the form of unemployment, foreclosure and alcoholism – resonates today. Archetypal characters play out the 1% versus 99% in this socially and environmentally astute play. The boom and bust of a town’s reliance on natural resources, not to mention the collateral damage as men risk their lives for a paycheque, take a heavy toll on this family. Mired in lives of sacrifice, depression and desperation, all they have is each other. But will love and family be enough?

Killcreek will be performed at the Randolph Theatre -Tickets $10 at the door
