“It is loosely based on some of the facts,” Matthews said. “It’s a comedy as well as a drama.”

The organization has grown and has become non-profit in the last year.

They now offer other programs for adults with special needs, which help them gain work experience.

“We are growing,” Matthews said. “The friendships within the cast, within all of us. It’s really a family.”

The performances will take place Friday Nov. 11 at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, Nov.12 at 7:30 p.m. Both plays will be performed at the Eric J. Maclean S.J. Centre for Performing Arts.
