KEIKO HART - stageplay
Keiko Hart is a UVic graduate who has formerly worked as editor-in-chief of This Side of West, executive editor at The Warren, and is co-founder and creative director of Continental Shelf Writers’ Collective. Her involvement in the writing community has lead her to connect with Open Word: Readings and Ideas, where she helps organize reading events. Her plays have been produced by SATCo at the Phoenix Theatre and lighting and set designer Alan Brodie. She is passionate about art and design, and currently balances working as graphic designer and social media strategist for Concept-CCI with her work as a photojournalist and writer for Holy Smokes Music.
In GRAVE IMPORTANCE, Sam David travels to the fictional town of Vilkhovetsz, Olkhovetsz, in the Ukraine in order to bury his deceased grandmother. He enlists the help of young rabbi Uri Taitelbaum, a man determined to prove his rabbinical title, and discovers intimate things about his grandmother's past as well as his cultural and religious identity.
