Biography |
"Alberta-based playwright, actor and producer born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, July 11, 1960. He began his career as a designer. He has written 15 plays which have been presented in this country as well as in Northern Ireland and New York City. His first play, Swordplay (1990) was just the first of the works to be premiered, each year, in the Edmonton Fringe Festival."
Called by Edmonton's Vue Magazine "one of the most accomplished playwrights in [the city]," he is currently playwright in residence and producer for Shadow Theatre (1995-). He also performs with Theatresports and acts in Die-Nasty, a weekly, live soap opera which has been running for nine years. He also has performed every year at the Fringe and directs the annual Soap-a-thon which runs 52 hours at the Varscona Theatre" (qtd. from Nothof, http://www.canadiantheatre.com/dict.pl?term=David%20Belke). |

| Synopsis |
"Forty years ago Rosalind Downey fell in love with an actor while performing A Midsummer Night's Dream. Now he's back. Rosy coloured memory collides with cold reality against a Shakespearean background in this touching comedy" (qtd. from 14 Nov. 2003. http://www.playwrightsguild.ca/playwrights/playwrights.html). |
