Stage adaptations of Alice Munro's stories

[/Paul Babiak/]

Greetings all:

I'm aware of one.  A few years back there was a very innovative and  
interesting adaptation of The Progress of Love, directed and  
dramaturged by Guillaume Bernardi at the Alumni Theatre Studio Space  
in Toronto, for which I'm told I coached one of the performers in  
stiltwalking, though I have no recollection of having done so.   A  
friend at the Alum is turning up any info she can find for me.

Cheers, Paul
