Mesa

This charming, warm and funny play chronicles a road trip between a thirty-something guy and his wife’s grandfather, from their home in Calgary to the grandfather’s retirement trailer where he winters in Mesa, Arizona. Along the way the young guy wants to stop at all the sights and discover the "real" America while the old guy wants his routine – Denny’s and Motel 6. It is at its heart a love story between the two who come to understand each other though separated by sixty years in age. What sounds like a desperately long trip turns into a brilliant and heartfelt story with plenty of humor and dry desert wit.
