2010 Reading Series:

Marcel-Romain Thériault – author of The Net , Marcel-Romain Thériault, will speak from his unique perspective and share ideas with us about his artistic process.
Josh MacDonald: Young Nova Scotian writer, Josh MacDonald is a man whose career is skyrocketing. His two plays, Whereverville and Halo, have been produced across the country, and in the U.S.. In recent years, he has lent his amazing talent to television and film, and currently has two feature films in production. A huge – maybe even unique feat for a young Maritime screenwriter, his first film Faith, Fraud, and Minimum Wage will be released on the big screen this Fall (starring Parrsboro’s own Don Allison), and his second feature film – a thriller – has just finished shooting in Canning in the Annapolis Valley. Josh will give us a preview of his new film, and talk about how – with persistence and hard work – dreams can come true.
