Green Thumb Theatre, in partnership with Collingwood Neighbourhood House, is thrilled to present a free performance of the play 500 Words on Saturday, February 15, by veteran Canadian artist and playwright Jamie Norris. Happening at 10am (doors at 9:30am) at Collingwood Neighbourhood House, the play offers an opportunity for families and communities to come together and enjoy this funny and heartwarming play
About the play:
500 Words follows the story of an unlikely pair, Lance (Ethan DeHoog) and Sylvia (Sewit Eden Haile). Lance is the smartest kid in grade six, and never misses an opportunity to show off his vocabulary. Sylvia is a daydreamer in grade three, always coming up with fantastical worlds, but doesn’t always have the words to bring her stories to life. When Lance’s teacher assigns Sylvia as his reading buddy, he would rather spend the time focusing on writing a prize-winning entry for the school’s story competition. But when Lance can’t think of a story on his own, it’s Sylvia’s vibrant imagination that creates a whole world of magic for him to draw inspiration from.
