Special thanks to Colonel By Retirement Residence of Ottawa for providing a warm welcome and lovely audience for "A Circle of Time”, Burning Passions Theatre’s second “Seniors Sharing Stories” theatrical presentation, developed in partnership with the CRC Rideau-Rockcliffe CRC.

It’s rare when the lives of seniors are featured in the news or in entertainment, so for two years, this project has brought together community elders to create new works expressing their hopes, dreams, and challenges as they enter the fabled “third chapter” of their lives.

The new play, written and directed by @Laurel Smith, explores the lives of those entering retirement as part of the sandwich generation, women juggling the needs of adult children and elderly parents while trying to chart a course for their own lives in the post 9-to-5 world.

The play features Deborah Bolton, Janet Bowes, Sheila Knight, Angela Pelly and Tammy Southin, with expert production assistance from Harley Wegner.

Thanks to the New Horizons for Seniors program, the Ontario Arts Council - Conseil des arts de l'Ontario and the Ontario Seniors Community Grant Program. ... See MoreSee Less
