Ann-Marie MacDonald's Belle Moral: A Natural History was so successful when it premiered at The Shaw Festival in the 2005 season, that the Festival has decided to revive the production there and to take it on tour. Actor, playwright and novelist Anne-Marie MacDonald is well known to most theatre audiences for her Shakespearean parody Good Night Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet) which premiered in 1988 and won the playwright a Governor General's Award for Drama. Since then, she has published numerous novels, including her first, Fall On Your Knees, which became in international best-seller and won several awards launching her career in the global literary arena. Director Alisa Palmer writes that "in all of MacDonald's work –her plays, novels and libretti – the pursuit of truth is the driving engine." To all her work she brings an intelligent sense of humour, a canny perception of the human experience, and an abiding love of story-telling. Belle Moral: A Natural History is no exception. |
