Come Down From Up River, by Norm Walters

An Evening of Comedy and Heart — to Benefit United Midcoast Charities

Shaver Bennett has spent most of his life alone in the woods of northern New Brunswick. So when he turns up unannounced at his niece Bonnie's city doorstep — twenty years since they last spoke, and with her wife, Liv, answering the door — nobody's sure how this is going to go. What follows is a funny, disarming, and genuinely moving story about the distance between people and how little it sometimes takes to close it. Come Down From Up River, by Norm Foster — lauded as the Neil Simon of Canada — is "a tender, moving, and often hilarious tale" about the family we're handed, the family we choose, and the grace of meeting each other halfway.

Presented by John Burstein in association with The Everyman Repertory Theatre.
