White Rock Players’ current mystery thriller (Coast Capital Playhouse, until Feb. 26), Lori Tych plays an emotionally charged central role. A poet and part-time librarian, Sara McKeon finds herself in a nightmarish situation when her lover, restaurant owner David (Jason Dedrick) is found shot to death.
Just as shocking are allegations that the man she thought she knew had an unsavoury past that may have included kidnapping, rape and murder. Her interaction with the officers investigating the case, intense ‘alpha male’ Det. H.E. Weber and the more easy-going Sgt. Al Kersnowski, convince her that her only option is to investigate the murder herself. Along the way she
in character roles, she confesses that playing a plum role that has her on stage for most of the show’s 28 scenes – and a romantic lead in the bargain – has whetted her appetite for more. She says she can identify with her character’s belief that materialism and possessions don’t add up to a good or happy existence. “Sara’s a minimalist in many ways – and I’m a little that way, too. I live a very simple life.”
enlists the help of friends to navigate an urban maze populated with characters whose motives are in question, including Carl Eisenstadt, Marie Defaria and Julius Gatz. The mystery is also relatively unexplored territory for Tych, who acknowledges “this is the most straight character I’ve played – I can’t go to my comedic default setting.” While she’s always been featured more

was this outrageously lovely diva – part Carol Burnett and part Gloria Swanson – that was just exhilarating.” Tych, who grew up on an acreage outside of Edmonton, said acting is something she originally “fell into.” “I didn’t pursue it in high school or university,” she said. “I was working as a bartender at a hotel in Edmonton where they had a dinner theatre. I’d been doing some singing, so when I was offered some roles, it seemed like an opportunity to learn my craft.” It soon became a passion for her, which she fueled by working with a small independent theatre company, Celebration, based in Winnipeg, and also Theatre Prospero, which toured Shakespeare plays to high schools.

hurled herself back into stage acting several years ago as a counterbalance to her busy career in the restaurant business – patrons of the local scene may recognize her from such venues as Beecher Street Cafe and Cielo’s. Mostly known for comedy, she’s acquired a reputation as something of a chameleon for taking on a wide range of characters in such plays as The Passion Of Dracula, Dearly Departed and Twentieth Century. “In Passion of Dracula I was Wilhelmina Murray, a take off – with many liberties – of Dracula’s eternal love,” she said. “In Dearly Departed, I played trailer park trash – a mother of three who aspires to be a singer – a busy-body drama queen in cowboy boots.
