How to Save the World from a Bus to Thunder Bay at the Calgary Fringe Festival

Acorn Cap Productions returns to the Calgary Fringe Festival, after their successful run of last year's "You Work Where? Three Plays of Odd Occupations"

When their bus hits a pothole on Highway 11, Dylan, Willowby, and the Driver think it's the worst of their problems. But when unexpected visitors appear from above, they realize they might not make it to Thunder Bay after all. Through an explosive and extinctive threat, the three of them are forced to ask: can stories save the world? If not, then what will?

Inspired by science-fiction tropes, slow-moving bureaucracy, and Roland Emmerich’s 1990 film Independence Day, this play offers a hilarious, off-beat, and moving exploration of why we tell stories, when to take action, and how to keep trying.

There are two more chances to catch this new Canadian sci-fi comedy, so don't miss it!
