FULFILLMENT CENTRE // NOV 16 - DEC 7, 2025

THE COAL MINE THEATRE PRESENTS THE CANADIAN ENGLISH-LANGUAGE PREMIERE OF:

FULFILLMENT CENTRE

By Abe Koogler
Directed by Ted Dykstra

In the New Mexico desert, a down-on-her-luck folk singer takes a job at a giant online retailer’s shipping center. Her young manager struggles to connect with his girlfriend newly relocated from New York. And a drifter living at a local campground dangerously links them all. A raw, surprising, and funny play about four lonely lives coming together in the search for fulfillment.

“[A] quietly shattering play…though you’re likely to feel the pressure of unshed tears when [it] is over, FULFILLMENT CENTER is also an unexpectedly inspiriting work. …The [play] is steeped in a luminous and illuminating empathy that feels both uncommon and essential…” —The New York Times
