Vancouver’s first Slavic-accented theatre, founded by Ukrainian and Russian newcomers, brings its signature farce Number 13 to The Cultch’s Historic Theatre from December 11 to 13.
A man and a woman book a cozy hotel room for a romantic evening. It seems like nothing could possibly go wrong—until just about everything does.
The Prime Minister’s assistant plans a secret night with the opposition leader’s secretary in a hotel room. But their plans are suddenly interrupted by a stranger who needs to be dealt with urgently. What starts as a private, romantic evening turns into a series of funny events, expertly written by the author into a perfect example of comedic brilliance.
The Horseradish Theatre’s Number 13 will have viewers laughing until their cheeks hurt. Evening performances on December 11 and 12 will be presented in English, and a matinee on December 13 will be performed in Russian.
Tickets are available here.
