PADRE X
Written and Performed By Marc Moir

Synopsis

A story of bravery and beauty, this Fringe hit by Winnipeg writer Marc Moir brings to life the journey of John Weir Foote. As the only Canadian chaplain to win the Victoria Cross during the Second World War, Foote’s heroism shines as he chooses to stay behind with his unit during the Dieppe raid. Padre X has received awards from Fringe Festivals across Canada including Best of Fest and Outstanding Drama. Critics have called it "a pure triumph" and "a beautiful performance".
