Written by Robert Chafe, this almost forgotten story of a Canadian hero tells of duty, courage, love and change. It’s based on the life of a young British nurse, Myra Grimsley, who in 1921 signed on for two years to serve as the sole health care provider for 300 miles of the sparsely settled coast of Newfoundland —  and stayed for seventy, raising a family and being honoured by her country. Directed by Ian C. Feltham, the play runs from January 30 to February 15 at the Pinnacle Playhouse. 8:00pm on select evenings and 2:00pm on Sundays. Adults $20, Seniors $18, Students $10. For tickets visit www.bellevilletheatreguild.ca or call 613-967-1442.
