Expiration Date

SunsetGun Productions—Rachel Browne Th. (Crocus)

This is another show with the tough subject matter of cancer and impending death, so it may not be for everyone.

However, it is a very powerful, well-written play that is expertly performed. Candy Simmons wrote and performs this one woman show in which the main character has found out she has her own Expiration Date due to an aggressive cancer.

We then see her struggles in dealing with knowing she does not have much time. Additionally, we see some deep emotional wounds from the past that are brought forward again, as her mother also died of the same disease.

There are a few funny moments and some other uplifting scenes scattered throughout which helps lighten the mood.
