All the world’s a stage, but not everyone is a star.

Joe Bleakley is an actor who, despite being forced by his daughter into the Foggadieu Retirement Village, can’t quite retire. Determined to continue performing he has devised a show wherein he will get to deliver the greatest speeches of all the parts he hasn’t played. Join Joe in his apartment as he prepares for his world premiere performance at the retirement village’s monthly concert with excerpts from Shakespeare, Death of a Salesman, Long Day’s Journey Into Night, The Prisoner of Second Avenue and many more. But behind the quotes, anecdotes and jokes we learn of a father whose difficult relationship with his daughter is a source of great pain. Written and performed by the Ensemble’s own Henri Szeps, this is an honest and insightful look at an actor’s life and a father’s regret.
