Learn About “The Greatest Canadian”

Join the Human Development Council at the Imperial Theatre, 8:00 pm, May 1st, 2006 for a production of TOMMY DOUGLAS: The Arrows of Desire, a one-man show that explores the life, battles, and humanitarian accomplishments of “The Greatest Canadian” - Tommy Douglas. This event will be the Human Development Council’s largest fundraiser this year.

Presented by Phantom Poets Touring Theatre Company of Canada, the original script, TOMMY DOUGLAS: The Arrows of Desire was written and is performed by Canadian actor and playwright, John Nolan, following 20 years of study, research, and writing, as he pared down 81 vibrant years to a workable feature-length play.

Funds raised from this event will support the Saint John Youth Cabinet initiative for youth aged 13 to 25, and our Community Information Centre, an Information & Referral service serving New Brunswick.

Tickets are $20.00 and are on sale now at the Imperial Theater box-office 674-4100 or 1-800-323-7469.










Sponsors for this event are:
CAW – Canadian Auto Workers Union, C.U.P.E. Local 1418 – Sub Local 11, and Saint John District Labour Council.
