About the Play:

Three Quest Plays contains three plays for children and young adults by JoAnne James. Funny and poignant, these three plays explore the hazards and joys of friendship.

The Echo Box is set by the sea, where two friends have met for many enjoyable summer holidays. This particular summer is marked by reunion, betrayal, and reconciliation. (Cast: 2 girls, 1 boy)

In Moving Day, two best friends must part. They are separated by one family's move from Calgary to Vancouver. How will the two friends survive this separation? (Cast: 2 girls, 1 boy)

In Willa and Sam, the same heroines of Moving Day are reunited but find that time and distance have separated them. (Cast: 2 girls, 1 boy)

A sensitive and satisfying combination of down-to-earth humour and lyrical fantasy distinguish these three fine scripts, which have enjoyed popular and critical acclaim in performance.
