Siberian Summer wins the Tom Hendry Playwrights Guild of Canada Comedy Award

Siberian Summer poster.jpg


Hang on to your caboose, this girls trip is about to go off the rails! Siberian Summer, by Paul Van Dyck, is a hilarious romp following three women “of a certain age” and one of their sons on a journey of self-discovery as they travel the Trans-Siberian Railway from St. Petersburg to Beijing. Inspired by an actual trip the playwright took with his mother and her friends, this whimsical and exuberant play reminds audiences that life is an adventure worth living to the fullest, no matter what your age.

With its world premiere at The Segal Centre for Performing Arts postponed due to Covid-19, Siberian Summer hopes to welcome audience back onboard as soon as possible.
