Created and performed by Matthew MacKenzie and Mariya Khomutova, directed by Lianna Makuch. A love story set against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Performed by its creators, this intimate work bridges time, distance, and borders — a quietly uplifting story of separation, resilience, and connection. Theatre Calgary production.
