Almost Live | Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes

Special Saturday Matinée, April 16, 2022 at 1:30 pm Pacific Time online via Zoom

A special online presentation of a video recording of the Belfry Theatre production, with audio description.

Jon is a prize-winning novelist and star professor. Annie is a clever, imaginative, first-year student, and a huge fan of Jon’s work. Jon’s third marriage is going about as well as his first two, and he’s frustrated teaching creative writing to lazy undergraduates. And then he finds himself admired by a student—a girl in a red coat. Annie.

Who’s the hunter? Who’s the hunted? Who will take the next step? And who will ever understand this complex dance? When the dust has settled, who controls the narrative? And who owns this story?

Award-winning playwright Hannah Moscovitch has set the international theatre scene alight with her fiery wit and incisive ability to tackle complex subjects with humour and intelligence.


The VocalEye virtual lobby opens at 6:30 pm Pacific Time for some socializing and community updates with host Amy Amantea. The pre-show introduction will begin at 6:45 pm with Amy and guests. The featured show begins at 7 pm followed by conversation, Q and A and a prize draw.
