Lucy gets engaged to three men during World War II because “No one should have to go overseas without someone to come home to.” A lovely idea, until the war ends and all three arrive at her apartment on the same evening - the apartment Lucy and her sister are in danger of losing to their angry and bitter landlady. Will Lucy find a way to say “no” to what she doesn’t want so she can say “yes” to what she does? The Fiancée is a mad-cap, wig-swapping, door-slamming, cake-facing farce with smart, hilarious women at its heart.

“The Fiancée premiered at The Citadel Theatre (Edmonton, AB) in 2021 (Daryl Cloran, Artistic Director; Sarah Pocklington, Executive Director). The Fiancée is produced by permission of the Playwright and Marquis Literary (Colin Rivers).
