It used to be just us… Just ours. Just friends?
Written and directed by Faith Andrew
Auditions: January 26–28, 2025
Performances: May 2–18, 2025
It’s hard to know who you want to be with when you don’t know who you are. Just Friends follows the ever-evolving lives of two best friends as they navigate who they are beyond the safety of their childhood bond. This new Canadian play by local playwright and disabled artist Faith Andrew explores the complexities of growing up, moving on and what happens to those that are left behind — or those who decide never to grow up at all.
