Ticket (and Novel) Giveaway Contest: Lisa Moore’s February at Alumnae Theatre


Mooney on Theatre is giving away three pairs of tickets to the world premiere of Lisa Moore’s play February, based on the novel by the same name, on Saturday, September 22nd at 8pm at Alumnae Theatre (70 Berkeley St).

To be entered into the draw for a pair of tickets just send an email to contests@mooneyontheatre.com with the subject line “February contest” by 3:00PM on Thursday, September 20, 2012.

To make this deal even sweeter, Lisa Moore’s publisher, House of Anansi Press, is also giving away one free copy of the novel to one lucky ticket winner.

See below for details about the show and how the contest works:

Based on Lisa Moore’s acclaimed novel of the same name (long-listed for the 2012 Man Booker Prize), February is the story of Helen, left a young widow with four children when her husband is killed in the Ocean Ranger oil rig disaster off Newfoundland in 1982.  Twenty-seven years later, Helen still struggles to escape the memories and move forward with her life, while her son John deals with a crisis of his own.  Like the novel, the play moves back and forth in time, interweaving the colours of Helen’s grief with the heart and humour of John’s fresh dilemma.
