Ker Wells – Living Tall

Performed by Ker Wells
Written by Mike Geither
Directed by Karin Randoja, with lighting design by Flavia Hevia

Salesman Jeffrey Weaver shares his secrets on how to increase sales and earn respect in the business community, then lets slip some of his more personal secrets as his well-planned motivational seminar careens off the rails. A touching, hilarious and often bizarre monologue written by Mike Geither and performed with energy and intensity by Wells, one of Canada’s most accomplished proponents of physical theatre.

Meet the artist – a reception will follow the Thursday evening performance
