“If everybody was at the top of the heap, there wouldn’t be a heap.”

A young gun, a curmudgeon, and a nearly expired dish jockey come together in the basement of an upscale restaurant. In this place of endless dishes, suds and despair, Morris Panych brings wit and humour to the quest for existential meaning. A delicious comedy about the Zen of dishwashing.

Morris has enjoyed great success at the Tarragon with such plays as 7 Stories, Vigil, The Ends of the Earth, Lawrence and Holloman, and Girl in the Goldfish Bowl which last year won the Governor General’s Literary Award for Drama.
