Ted and Julia, a middle-aged couple, meet for their fifth date. Here, secrets are revealed that will challenge them (and us) to consider questions of redemption, free will versus determinism, sexuality, the Canadian justice system, and more. By the date’s end, everything has changed, leaving the audience to consider: what comes next for this couple with their dark secrets? Is a sixth date even possible?
While it is easy to consider people either “good” or “evil,” this disregards the complexity of the human condition; and when we reduce people to the single worst action of their life, we do so at our own peril.
Fifth Date is an original one-act play written and directed by Winnipegger Andrew Davidson.
