Description
The past infiltrates the present and real life exists alongside the world of the imagination in this collection of three plays by Calgary-based writer Ken Cameron. In My One and Only, a 15-year-old Canadian boy becomes Marilyn Monroe's secret companion when she comes to the Rockies in 1955 to film River of No Return; in Harvest, Cameron turns a real-life incident involving his parents into a comedy about a rural couple who unwittingly rent their farm out to a marijuana grow-op; and in the monologue My Morocco, Cameron himself takes the stage to tell the story of his fraught relationship with his estranged sister, news of whose death reaches him while he is on vacation in Morocco.
