The show was so well received, we did a remount of it later that year. After a succes<span class="text_exposed_show">sful second run, it received two Merritt Award nominations: Outstanding New Play by a Nova Scotian Playwright (Michael McPhee) and Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role (Glen Matthews as Logan).<br /> <br /> In 2011, we became a not-for-profit Society, registered with the Registry of Joint Stocks in our home province of Nova Scotia. <br /> The Doppler Effect Productions Society&rsquo;s Board are: <br /> Kevin Kindred<br /> Sande Jordan<br /> Adam Reid<br /> Steff Moore<br /> Annie Valentina (also Artistic Producer)<br /> Michael McPhee (also Creative Director)<br /> <br /> Later that year, we traveled to the International Theatre Lab (Norway) to workshop <em>CU2morrow</em>, written collaboratively by Valentina and McPhee. We produced the first run of <em>CU2morrow</em> in October 2011. The play underwent a second stage of workshopping with dramaturg Bryden MacDonald in the spring of 2012, in preparation for entering the festival circuit in 2013/14.<br /> <br /> Our 2011 Atlantic Fringe show, a small side project called <em>Whiteout</em> (written and directed by Michael McPhee), played repeatedly to a sold-out house and became a Fringe Festival Hit. <br /> <br /> We are currently working on - among other exciting projects - our third full-scale offering, <em>Touch: </em>a new play-in-progress by Annie Valentina. </span></p>
