When it Rains

The world premiere production of 2b theatre’s When it Rains took place at the Bus Stop in Spring of 2011. The production, which is billed as a “live action existential graphic novel,” was lit entirely by video projector and featured a cast of Francine Deschepper, Connor Green, Samantha Wilson, and the Bus Stop’s own Sebastien Labelle.

 

The 2011 production was nominated for nine Robert Merritt Awards, including Best Production, and Francine Deschepper won for Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role (female).

 

When it Rains has since been performed across the world, including Toronto, New York, Memphis, Edinburgh, and Mumbai. The show has also been translated into Spanish as Cuano Llueve, and premiered in Buenos Aires in 2018.
