About the play:
The View is a “socio-paranormal environmental sex-farce set on an island somewhere in the Pacific Northwest”. Two old time islanders and extreme new age thinkers, Angel and Zorg live a spirit guided, libido driven life in a small home on an island. Zorg is a chain-saw artist, Angel a Tantric healer. Two newcomers from the city, Kenneth and Debra Bailey, knock on Angel and Zorg’s door in hopes of convincing them to cut down a tree in their yard, which will vastly improve Kenneth and Debra’s view. With this scenario in place, the play roars off to hit on almost every aspect of islander life: tree envy, tree removal, power outages, ferry issues, deer challenges ...

About the playwright:
David Cameron graduated from theatre at York University in 1984. He has played major roles in film and TV over the years and co-founded Kingbaby Productions with his wife Jackie in 1989. David wrote the story of Mad Mabel's Christmas when he was in grade seven in order to work off demerit points for bad behaviour. In 1998 he re-wrote the story into a one-act play that has seen five productions! David's other produced plays include The Sculpture, The Gizzard Trial and La Vita Grande which was awarded "best comedy" in the 2003 Fringe Festival. David has been the host of his live late night talk show, The Dave Cameronson Show and writer of many of Kingbaby's sketch comedies. Recently David saw a successful complete sell-out run of his new full-length Supernatural Sex Farce, The View. David is currently working its sequel, A Womb with a View.

"The View is a very, very funny, energetic, well acted, and brilliantly written play that may renew the viewer’s sexual energy and leave them with a deep craving for venison."
