<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i><span lang="EN-CA">The Rocket Man</span></i></b><span lang="EN-CA"> - Adapted
</span>from Ray Bradbury's short story of the same title, <b><i>The Rocket Man</i></b> delivers a view on family life in a world where space travel is common and homes automatically clean themselves. The family of a “rocket man” anxiously awaits his arrival
from the latest dangerous, glamorous mission, knowing that when he does return nothing will ever be the same. Kelly Hornung’s stage adaptation brings the dazzling, romantic world of Bradbury's imagination to life, along with his vivid characters and the terrible
lessons they must learn.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;background:white"><b><i><span lang="EN-CA">Out of the Box</span></i></b><span lang="EN-CA">
</span>- Imagination can take us on far-off adventures through time and space, or hold us captive with painful memories.
<b><i>Out of the Box</i></b> is the story of children’s author Avery Corwin, the writer's block he suffers as he tries to complete his best-selling book series, and questions of what happens to the imagination when we are forced to grow up.<span lang="EN-CA"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i><span lang="EN-CA">Phone Book</span></i></b><span lang="EN-CA">
</span>- A young man feels his life is far too predictable, so he decides the only logical course of action is to call ten strangers from a payphone in the hope that he might break from his script.
<b><i>Phone Book</i></b><i> </i>is a one-man show that explores the repetitive nature of our day-to-day lives.<o:p></o:p></p>
