    Kaleidoscope Theatre is set to deliver a powerful performance in its fall production of “For the Pleasure of Seeing Her Again.”

    Carol Todor is directing the one-act play featuring the talent of Geraldine Lee and Aaron Redditt. She comes to the play as a fan.
    “I have seen it twice before, I wanted the ‘pleasure of seeing it again,’” laughs Todor.
    Written by Canadian Playwright Michael Tremblay, it explores the bond between mother and son. Todor says it tugs at the heartstrings.
    “It is a tribute to his mother, who is very influential in him becoming a playwright and she died before he had his breakthrough,” said Todor. “That is where the title comes from, ‘to see her again,’ to show that he has succeeded.”
     She says the play is dialogue driven with thoughtful writing.
    “It’s her story throughout, a middle-class Canadian family,” said Todor.
    ‘The words come at you a mile a minute but kind of sucks you in.”
    Lee has been in a few Kaleidoscope productions including Steel Magnolias, Aaron Redditt is fresh off 9 to 5.
    Todor believes this will appeal to all kinds of patrons.
    “I think it would be a great date show and it would be great to go with a parent, it could appeal to a very wide audience,” she said.
    For the Pleasure of Seeing Her Again runs November 9-11 and 15-17 at 7:30 p.m., with a matinee on November 12 at 2 p.m.
