Prodigal Son
Happily planted on the west coast, Peter has his whole life mapped out for him: a career he can believe in, a fabulous boyfriend who loves him, and a circle of friends who accept him for who he is.
But when he starts seeing visions and experiencing strange physical sensations, his boyfriend assumes he's going crazy. The best help Peter can find is a therapist and single mother working out of her basement suite. Together they unravel the mystery behind Peter's mystical reawakening, a journey that leads him back to his conservative Catholic childhood in Quebec City, a family in denial, and his father's deathbed.
Prodigal Son - a story of going in and coming out again.

Broken
Like a shard of glass to the spine, Gatchalian's "Broken" is razor sharp, digging deep to scrape the nerve. Emotional dysfunction spreads like a plague through a namelessly familiar urban sprawl. In its wake, nothing survives unbroken: hearts, families, rhythms, dreams. At the epicentre of the maelstrom is a young man named Adrian, godlike and hurting, struggling to discern the sickness from the cure. New Bard Press is excited to publish this script as an artifact of Broken's world premiere at Vancouver's Firehall Arts Centre, March 2006.

Beneath the Deep Blue Sky
A strange and stirring geek fantasia written for the stage by award winning poet, playwright, and computer game designer, Rob Bartel.
Schizophrenic internet addicts, dispossessed panhandlers, Soviet game programmers, digital Mozarts, defeated chess grandmasters, voyeuristic search engines and more chase their varying destinies in this whirlwind exploration of what it means to be human in the age of the computer.
The result is a daringly original piece of theatre that sparks the imagination and imprints itself upon the memory for years to come.
