The world premiere of the play Moosef**ker, Ontario
New Noise Productions is pleased to present this world premiere production of the play MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, written by Andrew Paulsen, and directed by Stefani Celine.
A Northern Ontario Gothic comedy, MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, is what the locals call Moosewater, Ontario, a small town about a ten-hour drive North of Toronto. Jason, who goes by his self-given rap persona 2Ble-Weed, works the day shift as a manager at Tim Hortons, while rapping at night at the local Legion. Together with his girlfriend Tiffany, they decide to blackmail his estranged father to provide enough cash to support a trip to Sudbury to record his debut album.
MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, is gleefully off the rails, chaotic and full of a fast-paced frenzy of over-the-top violence and eccentric characters. Drawing from a vast array of experiences growing up in small-town North-Western Ontario, it is a ridiculous and loving homage to this place we call home while embracing some of our more seedy and trashy qualities, offering perspective alongside laughs.
MOOSEF**KER, ONTARIO, ultimately is a raunchy, entertaining punk-rock comedy about small-town North Ontario life.
