Now he has returned to find her engaged to a man he loathes and must attempt to win her back. Mary is a bitter, and practical, spitfire played by Sally Faulkner with grit, strength and intense subtly. Alex McGrath\u2019s Jacob is charming and quick-witted, but with deep roots in his community and loyalty to his values. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\"><em>Salt Water Moon<\/em> is a somber piece that explores poverty and the question of whether financial security or matters of heart are more prudent ways of life. This production never descends into melodrama, maintains a captivating sense of tension and makes good use of silence; it wisely doesn\u2019t bog itself down with attempts at accents, and the performances are nuanced and deeply felt. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">If you\u2019re looking for an evening of drama this Fringe, I highly recommend you see <em>Salt Water Moon<\/em>. These students have bright futures ahead of them.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Salt Water Moon plays at the Living Room (2353 Agricola Street) at the following times:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Friday, September 11th at 7:50<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was extremely impressed by Sackville Student Theatre\u2019s beautiful production<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4671],"tags":[4699,4697,3212,4696,4700,4698],"class_list":["post-2678","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-review","tag-alex-mcgrath","tag-david-french","tag-halifax-fringe","tag-sackville-student-theatre","tag-sally-faulkner","tag-the-living-room"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Salt Water Moon - The Way I See It Theatre &amp;
