^{PRAISE  FOR  PTE 's  HOW  IT  WORKS :}

^{"Daniel MacIvor brings wit and wisdom to this fast-moving story. The dialogue is tight and real... His story is simple enough yet completely engaging. In the hands of this award-winning Canadian playwright, the ordinary can become extraordinary."  Winnipeg Free Press Online}

^{"...How It Works flows effortlessly and effectively, propelled by MacIvor's humour and compassion as well as director Robert Metcalfe's clear-eyed direction."  Kevin Prokosh}

When your teenage daughter is struggling with drugs, boys and the law, it’s probably not the best time to start dating. But after suffering through a messy divorce,  Al is looking for a new start. Enter Christine, who not only soothes the scars of Al’s marital breakdown, but may even know what it takes to heal the girl with the angry heart. Told with MacIvor’s characteristic wit, humour and passion for the power of storytelling, How it Works is a moving portrait of how we can recreate the idea of family in the modern world.
