An Evening with Douglas Gibson Stories About Storytellers.
And many famous Canadian authors, like Alice Munro, Robertson Davies, W.O. Mitchell, Alistair MacLeod, Pierre Trudeau, Mavis Gallant, Brian Mulroney, Bob Hunter, James Houston, and others.
This one-man show consists of Doug Gibson, in traditional Publisher’s uniform of navy blazer and grey flannels, strolling about the stage telling stories about the authors he got to know well in the course of his amazing career as their Editor and Publisher.
The evening has been described as “unique”, and “hilarious”, and “full of great stories”. It could only come from someone who has had a long and fascinating career working behind the scenes with some of the most memorable men and women of our era, notably during his time as the Publisher of McClelland & Stewart from 1988 to 2004.
The show he has given across Canada, earning the praise, “As good as Stephen Leacock.”
