I would rush to review the show and I would hope to score interviews with the amazing women who co-founded this company and the artists who have created this piece of theatre for Nova Scotian audiences. Luna\/ Sea is a professional company whose mandate is to tell women\u2019s stories and create work for the many talented professionals in the region. This is so vitally important for Nova Scotia- our province has the talented artists, what it needs is YOU, the audience member, to stand in support of them and their independent ventures. It is these independent theatre companies, and experiments, and leaps of faith that- if nurtured and patronized- will grow into a series of indigenous theatres and companies that all work together to create Halifax\u2019s indigenous theatre community. We don\u2019t have one unique vision as a city, and no one theatre should monopolize it. Someday, I dream of having a Haligonian theatre \u201cdistrict.\u201d Luna\/Sea is one step closer to this dream being realized.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">If you\u2019re in Halifax, I urge you to support this theatre company and all independent, local theatre companies. Send a strong message that there is an audience for the arts in Halifax- an audience that is exuberant about the future and who demands to be seen and heard in droves. Don\u2019t let theatre fall by the wayside. It is as vital, relevant and native to our city and its people as the ocean. The first known dramatization by Europeans on this continent was performed in the ocean off the coast of our province, after all. Theatre is our legacy. Let\u2019s grab it and own it. Let\u2019s bring it home.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><strong><em>Girl in the Goldfish Bowl<\/em> is directed by the brilliant Martha Irving and stars Mauralea Austin, John Beale, Kathryn MacLellan, Graham Percy and Sherry Smith.
