Cleveland-based playwright Mike Geither, created The Attaining Gigantick Dimensions, a play that follows a military translator as he returns to Halifax from Afghanistan only to find a family crisis waiting for him. Framed by "the trauma of large-scale conflict" on one side and "personal loss" on the other side, what would seem to be ordinary events take on great significance in this "poetic, visually arresting theatrical mediation on life’s spaces." The performance takes place tonight at 7:30 at the Helen Rosenfeld Lewis Bialosky Lab Theatre. Tickets are $5 and the performance repeats tomorrow night at 7:30. (Niesel)
