MTC Takes ‘Melville Boys’ on Regional Tour

The Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre is taking its show on the road, travelling to several Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario communities in a new production of “The Melville Boys.”

The play is the story of Lee and Owen Melville, who arrive at a lakeside cabin for a relaxing weekend of fishing and brotherly bonding. But before they can open their tackle boxes, their plans are interrupted by the arrival of two attractive, but very different, sisters.

The production is the work of playwright Norm Foster.

The travelling show will begin Tuesday in Steinbach, later touring Crystal City, Killarney, Souris, Virden and other towns. To see a complete list, visit MTC.mb.ca.
