Benediction's costume parade was this afternoon -- that's theatre talk for our costume designer, Elizabeth Perry, sharing their amazing creations with the cast and crew!
In the fall of 1960 the small town of Benediction is about to welcome a new visitor. Young Daniel Collins has made his way by boat, train and foot from bustling Toronto to the shores of Notre Dame Bay. Freshly graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design, he’s brought his pens and papers, paint and brushes to capture landscapes on the edge of the Atlantic. He’ll be boarding with an estranged married couple, Rosemary and Loyola Eveleigh, and the longer he stays the closer gets to the secret keeping them apart and simultaneously keeping them together. And as an autumn storm draws nearer and nearer, the close quarters of their saltbox house entwine the three in a fog of tension, threatening to erupt.
