The Gateway Theatre presents: Moliere’s Don Juan An all new adaptation in association with Blackbird Theatre. Don Juan is a beguiling rogue and prodigious womanizer who rejects conventional morality, defying God, heaven and hell. His servant Sganarelle is appalled by his master’s behaviour; their arguments are a feast of wit. Everyone wants to reform the Don, but two sword fights and three amorous adventures later, it seems his rebel spirit will carry him through in the end. But will it? Molière’s most scandalous comedy gets an all-new treatment by Blackbird Theatre. Directed by John Wright. Tickets for adults are $47-$48 and students $30. Location: Gateway Theatre, 6500 Gilbert Rd. Phone: 604-270-6500 www.gatewaytheatre.com
