It’s October 1991, at the height of the AIDS crisis, and the residents of Casey House, Canada’s first free-standing AIDS hospice receive word that Diana, Princess of Wales, will be making a historic visit.
“Powerful, gripping, funny and hopeful,” (Hamilton Magazine), this moving drama by Nick Green vividly captures a moment in time when a rebel Princess, devoted caregivers and advocates reshaped the course of a crisis—and how those stricken by the virus found hard-won dignity, community and love in the face of astonishing hardship. Inspired by incredible true events, Casey and Diana is a powerful tribute to love, resilience, community and compassion.
