RCA Presents Spoiled Child Saves the Polar Bears
February 21, 2015 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Half-price matinee
When c-list celebrity Spoiled Child needs a career boost, she turns to her social media following to recommend a popular cause that she can bring awareness to. Cynically latching onto the issue of global warming, the faded star embarks on a fantastical journey from Toronto, Ontario to Churchill, Manitoba to Eureka, Nunavut. A chance encounter with Margaret Atwood and a run-in with a tight-lipped scientist lead her to the startling realization that she might actually care about something after all and resolves in a bizarre twist-ending.
Talkback 3pm:
Saturday's talkback with Katherine will touch on a wide variety of topics - from issues arising from the show (government cuts to science, armchair activism, celebrity impact on public opinion and policy) to a hopefully pointed discussion on why solo female shows, regardless of the clichés they reject, typically draw smaller houses (and how can we reverse that situation). If we're lucky, we'll also get Katherine to tell us her flattering story of how she first found her way to Newfoundland, and what draws her here still, 20 years later. Hosted by RCA board chair Neil Butler.
