The Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven Blatz

Local playwright, Armin Wiebe describes his play as "a novel that wanted to be a play."  After years of working on the novel Wiebe decided to adapt it for the stage.  Wiebe says his play was lucky enough to have gone through alot of workshops, and benefited from input from a few different local writers.

Once his play got into the rehearsal stages, many things needed to be done to make it ready. from last minute editing, to speech training for the actors. On his choice for inspiration, "I liked it, and it's a recognizable piece," said Wiebe. A key component was that the Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven Blatz was played under dialogue and the open faced piano somehow connects the audience to the music.

The play is centered arouund a Menonite couple living in the 1930's. A love triangle develops between the the wife and midwife, Susch and Teen. The couple is yearning for a child but to no avail. Then a new arrival to their isolated farm changes all that and more.
