In the play, a straight-laced mother, Pam (Alanis Peart), finds an inappropriate letter from her teenage son to his mystery girlfriend. When she arrives unannounced at the home of the girlfriend&#039;s bohemian mother, Holly (Astrid Van Wiernan), to discuss their children&#039;s relationship, things take an unexpected turn.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Adapted from Brecht&#039;s &lt;em&gt;Senora Carrar&#039;s&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Rifles&lt;/em&gt; (1937), Nicolas Billon&#039;s interpretation is a chilling reminder of the choices people face in times of war. Set during the Spanish Civil War, the play tells the story of Senora Carrar (Kate Hennig), a steadfast widow determined to keep her two sons, Jose (Araya Mengesha) and Juan (Wade Bogert-O&#039;Brien), alive as Franco&#039;s army marches toward their village.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bill Mullins, the wise and caring father of Fringe favourite Sam Mullins, sounds like a wonderful guy. His future &quot;funeral story,&quot; as told by the younger Mullins in &lt;a href=&quot;http://fringetoronto.com/next-stage-festival/listings/fatherly/&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fatherly&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, a new one-man show at the 2014 Next Stage Theatre Festival, however, is still a work in progress. Mounted in the Factory Theatre Antechamber, the 30 minute peformance comes across more like a live reading of an unfinished script than a stage-ready production.&lt;/p&gt;

Although named after the play’s endearing narrator, the play primarily follows small-town girl Lily (Sochi Fried) as she flees her banal existence for the seemingly brighter lights of the big city.&lt;/p&gt;

This surrealist 30-minute play transports audience members to an alternate world in which they are privy to the thoughts of polar bears. Unfortunately the bears in question happen to be trapped on a melting iceberg, facing their impending death.&lt;/p&gt;
