“Going For Love” in Canada
I saw this play when it came out last year and wrote about it on Boyce Voice, it was pretty damn entertaining!Bajans living in Canada should not miss out on this opportunity to experience our culture in fact everyone should see it regardless of where you are from..
It is very significant that Andy Armstrong and A and W Productions are exporting a Bajan entertainment product, usually when exports are spoken of it refers to Pepper Sauce and Sugar and tangible products, that now needs to be redefined. So when the Government is looking to put incentives in place to encourage exports, they must also remember the entertainment entrepreneurs who export the intangible cultural products.
By exporting to other territories also gives the play a longer revenue generation life, instead of depending on our small local theatre market “Going For Love” can now experience renewed financial vigor that an result in even more potential profits being recognised by the producers.
In Closing; If in Canada, Go and see “Going for Love” you will not regret it…..
one criticism I have of “Going for Love” the title should be more Bajan and it should be “Gine for Love”
If during the reading of this blog there is any thing I might have written which might have incensed or offended you, GET OVER IT! There are many things I read and hear in the media on a daily basis that I don't like either. SO DEAL WITH IT! You are welcome to leave your comments though. Make sure and come back yuh hear !!!...
