The critically acclaimed The Trial Of Ken Gass returns to the stage with a star-studded cast! Written/directed by Bobby Del Rio. Starring Jess Salgueiro. Produced by Jonathan Hlibka.

"The mishmash of Kafkas bureaucratic frustration, Becketts oddness, and Del Rios sense of humour puts an entertaining spin on the Canadian theatre controversy." -Mooney on Theatre full review: http://www.mooneyontheatre.com/2013/07/24/review-the-trial-of-ken-gass-sterling-studio-theatre/

"Del Rios dialogue is lively, and Salgueiro has fun being the aggressor, twisting Gasss statements into politically correct pretzels of incoherence." -NOW Magazine full review: https://www.nowtoronto.com/stage/story.cfm?content193743
