Beyond the Castle

At Close of Day

by Kevin John McDonald

When you feel the most lost, you are often the closest to being found.

Two strangers meet in an empty chapel on a cold winter night, each looking for something different.

At Close of Day was first developed as part of Driftwood Theatre’s Trafalgar 24 play-creation festival and is our second Beyond the Castle project. It was selected from among six plays by a jury of theatre professionals, critics, and audience members at Trafalgar 24, 2012.

Winning playwright Kevin John McDonald has been commissioned by Driftwood Theatre to expand upon his original 10-minute play and At Close of Day will undergo a workshop process from February 21 to 23, 2013, culminating in a public reading as part of Driftwood’s new-play development program, Beyond the Castle.
