HALFWAY THERE

Cast adrift by his fiancée, Doctor Sean is looking to "escape for a while", and Junior's Café in Stewiake, NS seems to be the perfect refuge. What he hasn't prepared for is a quartet of diner divas set on giving him a truly east coast welcome! Romance, gossip, bawdy tales, and the true meaning of friendships that last forever. A masterful new Canadian comedy classic by Canada's favourite play write.
