Nigel will be on stage in “Heart to Heart”, the season opener of the Summer Theatre Festival in Chester, Nova Scotia.
“Heart to Heart” is a new romantic comedy, written by Felix Medina, that explores the lighter side of romance and relationships. Nigel Bennett and Lally Cadeau portray 10 characters in a quintet of comedies, including a pair of siblings, best friends and married, divorcing and dating couples who debate, define and stumble upon the true nature of love. Theatrically brilliant, “Heart to Heart” is created for the audience to witness the magic of theatre as actors perform the scenery changes as action shifts to the next story - all written as part of the performance.
“Heart to Heart” runs from July 22 to August 1, 2009 at the Chester Playhouse.
