The Chilliwack Arts & Cultural Centre Society presents

This is Cancer FESTIVAL SERIES

Bruce Horak plays the dreaded disease as a narcissistic song-and-dance man in a gold lamé suit - bringing humour to a very tough subject. Boasting that he is the world’s most popular figure, Cancer tallies his internet hits with glee. When he learns that the whole world actually hates him, he goes on his own journey of denial, anger, bargaining, and ultimately, acceptance. Cancer survivor Horak pokes at our fears in this satirical cabaret, which is uproariously funny, poignant and personal. Adult material and situations - may not be appropriate for all audiences.
