Rick: The Rick Hansen Story by Dennis Foon World Premiere Co-produced with the Okanagan International Children's Festival in Partnership with The Rick Hansen Foundation For Teens February 25-March 4, 2010
MTYP's own world premiere production will take centre stage at the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad, but Winnipeggers get a sneak peek! Rick Hansen's Man in Motion World Tour was a legendary odyssey that changed the lives of millions. Written by Dennis Foon, with a vibrant multi-media component by Deco Dawson and directed by Robb Paterson, this world premiere takes audiences back to the beginning of this remarkable man's story: Teenage friends on a camping trip in Williams Lake, B.C. and the moments, big and small, leading up to a life-altering event.

“Hansen inspired and galvanized a nation, changed perceptions about disability and set the course for improving lives of people with spinal cord injury, and the search for a cure.”
