Various Locations Greater Toronto Area Toronto
LOLITA ENTERTAINMENT presents Ova Mi Dead Body written and directed by Paul O’Beale
The play tells the very comedic story of Delcita as a widow struggling to make ends meet after the death of her husband. Ova Mi Dead Body explores a number of typical significant issues affecting Delcita’s family, including single parenting, child abuse, and the death of a loved one.
The cast is lead by Andrea Wright (Delcita), Michael Nicholson (Milton), Trudy Bell (Melcita), Belinda Reid (Mildred), Stede Flash (Stamma) and Donald Thompson (Mr. Sharp). As Stages continues its tradition of telling a powerful story in an entertaining manner, “Ova Mi Dead Body” clocks in as being among the best that Stages Productions has produced to date. $35.
