The Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre will head to communities around the province beginning in February with their latest road tour.

This year’s play titled “Mix Tapes from My Mom”, will be in Thompson on Friday, February 16th at the Letkemann Theatre.

Here, Cory Wojick (Woe-jick), the writer and main character of the show, shares details about the story.

“It’s what I call, it’s a story-telling concert and it’s about the most extraordinary day that I’ve had in my life and it’s accompanied by a live band. It’s a story about love and loss and grief but also of the legacy of these mix tapes that my mother had left behind for me.”

Wojick, who is Winnipeg-born and bred, has been a performer for over 25 years.  He has been in a number of earlier Royal MTC plays, performed on Rainbow Stage and had film and TV roles.

Catch more about Wojick’s journey as a performer and “Mix Tapes from my Mom” on Thompson Today this afternoon at 12:40 and 5:10.
