Dry Streak

Dry Streak is a wildly funny comedy about belief, belonging, and the pressures of small-town life.

It’s the scorching summer of 1988. The Richards family have owned their farm for generations and son John returns home, but not alone. His new girlfriend, Kate is something this town didn’t even know existed: a punk-rock-loving, vegetarian city girl who isn’t in a rush to get married.

The rain won’t come, crops are failing, and as hope dries up, Kate makes a hilarious and reckless pledge: if the rains finally fall, she’ll run naked through town.

Dry Streak explores what happens when private desperation becomes public spectacle.

Saskatchewan playwright and grain farmer Leeann Minogue revisits her celebrated hit in a fresh new revision for Blyth — just in time for another long, hot summer.
