For Riches and Honour

Prize details

Beth George, award winning playwright and now co-director of a Winds of Change/Privateer Days production, is working to bring her characters to life and show Nova Scotians a side to 18th century Liverpool they would have never imagined. While her play, 'For Riches and Honour,' is historically influenced, tongue and cheek rule the day.

Organizers of Privateer Days quickly embraced ‘For Riches and Honour’ and have scheduled all of their other events to bracket the world premiere of the play. Brian Fralic, chair of the Festival, feels that the play is the icing on the cake and speaks to the heart of the Festival as a whole. “It pays tribute to our Privateering past while never losing its sense of fun. We are ecstatic to showcase ‘For Riches and Honour’ and are happy to be working with the Winds of Change to bring this about.”

I think of Pinterest as a wonderful tool for vision or dream boarding. For many of us, our dreams often include travel and adventure. And for those who are part of our Nova Scotia online community, those dreams include a Nova Scotia. And so begins our adventure with Pinterest.

The big camping experience last winter was spending a night in a yurt at kejimkujik national park. The only problem was finding an open weekend to book one of the two Yurts at the park. With time running out, we booked a single overnight in late March at the Eel Weir Yurt.
