Audiences have just a few weeks left to enjoy the critically acclaimed European premiere of Canadian playwright Jordan Tannahill's play, Late Company. The production presented by Stage Traffic Productions has enjoyed a hugely successful run at the Finborough Theatre, as part of their celebrations of Canada's 150th birthday and must end on 20 May.

This is the second production for Stage Traffic Productions, following last year's critical success with musical This Little Life of Mine, which ran at the Park Theatre.

The full cast for Late Company are Todd Boyce (Michael), David Leopold (Curtis), Alex Lowe (Bill), Lucy Robinson (Debora) and Lisa Stevenson (Tamara), and the production is directed by Michael Yale, with set and costumes by Zahra Mansouri, lighting by Nic Farman and sound by Chris Prosho.

One year after a terrible tragedy; 2 sets of parents, one dead son, one living son. Who is to blame?

A suburban dinner party for closure after 17 year-old Joel commits suicide. The guests; his heartbroken mother and father, his so-called tormentor Curtis, and his parents.

Far from finding the peace they seek, the dinner strips bare their good intentions to reveal layers of parental, sexual, and political hypocrisy.

Written with sensitivity and humour, Late Company explores restorative justice, cyber bullying, and the ever-changing complexities of parenthood in the 21st century.
