Lesser Demons, written and directed by Dorothy Dittrich, has a clever, funny and unusual plot. When Hannah agrees to a little weekend getaway to one of the Gulf Islands with her husband David, she has no idea her very soul is at risk. From past lives to deals with the devil, Lesser Demons takes a comic look at some serious subjects: family, love, creativity, forgiveness, spirituality and a few demons like ambition and greed along the way.
Playwright, musician and teacher, Nanaimo-based Dorothy Dittrich won the 2022 Governor-General’s Literary Award for Drama with her script The Piano Teacher. Lesser Demons was a finalist for the recent Playwrights' Guild of Canada comedy award.
