Woody Harrelson has called Toronto “his favourite city in North America,” so it is no surprise that he will stage Bullet For Adolf with Children at Play Productions, right here in our city! Harrelson staged This Is Our Youth in Toronto in the summers of 2003 and 2004, and returns to T.O. to stage his latest production, Bullet For Adolf, at the Hart House Theatre.

A mostly fictional story, the plot was inspired by Harrelson’s 1983 summer construction job. Characters are loosely based on real people from the conversations Harrelson had with his friend, Frankie Hyman, while on the job. The play also involves a gun that was once intended to kill Hitler.

Bullet For Adolf runs until May 7th; tonight’s showing is at 8pm. TIckets are $32 for general admission, and $18 for students and seniors. For more information, or to purchase tickets for the world premiere of this play, go to www.uofttix.ca.
