Description

Winner of the Dora Mavor Moore Award for Best Production for Young People. Winner of the Chalmer’s Children’s Playwrighting Award. Two Weeks, Twice a Year is about the difficult relations between a boy and his father six years after the parents have divorced. The play’s central question comes from Joe, the twelve year old son, and Gogo, his six year old alter-ego: "Does Dad really love me?" The question is explored with humour and the play’s answer strives to be both realistic and optimistic.
