In On It

a play by Daniel MacIvor

About the Production

Matchstick Theatre presented Daniel MacIvor’s In On It at the Bus Stop Theatre from January 11th-15th, 2017.

That One is putting on a play and he’s enlisted the help of a former lover, This One. As their drama develops we come to learn that the play and the lives of its players hold many revealing similarities. Why has That One written this play? What purpose does it serve? A spiraling narrative that dazzles and entrances, Daniel MacIvor’s In On It is a many-faceted, contemporary Canadian gem.

About

Daniel MacIvor

Daniel MacIvor, playwright, actor, film director, screenwriter (born 23 July 1962 in Sydney, NS). Five-time nominee (and one time winner) of the Governor General’s Award and two-time winner of the Chalmers Award for best new Canadian play, Daniel MacIvor is one of Canada’s most innovative playwrights. The broad appeal of his work has garnered a degree of popular success far beyond the range usually associated with experimental theatre. Part of this success is attributable to MacIvor’s skill and charm as a performer of his own work. He has toured widely in productions of his plays, setting a high standard for those who subsequently have attempted to produce his idiosyncratic work.
