The Battlefords Community Players will be presenting, Of the Fields Lately for their last show of the season.
This brilliant play by Canadian David French, is a sequel to his first play and reunites the Mercer family. Son Ben returns after an absence of two years to attend his aunt Dot’s funeral, only to find that his father has recently suffered a heart attack. As Jacob tries to come to terms with his situation, and Wiff and Mary grieve for Dot, Ben must make an important decision. This astonishing work about the ties of love and pride that bind us to family has been produced throughout North America.
