Stina Nyquist's new play tells the story of Joseph Tapley, an accomplished singer/actor in the early 1900s, who gave up his career in England to become a farmer in the Canadian wilderness.

Based on historical fact, the play is a fictional drama of the human dilema and struggle to survive, between Mr. Tapley and 'E' his wife. Historical information was provided by his family who still reside on the Tapley homestead on Lake of Bays, now known as Bondi Village.
