Canadian stage debut of Raccoon with IT Productions in Brantford, Ontario, 2026. Rehearsals begin.  

Directed by Bobby Robert. Assistant director Rose Risi. Staring Carlos Diaz as Roger and Lisa Stanford as Ellen. 

Assistant director Rose Risi is also the famous superhero of animal rescue. News leaks that the cast and crew of Raccoon are going to meet at Rose’s place to work on the script. An hour before, a local fan shows up and asks if this is where they’re doing the show about raccoons finally getting what they deserve. 

The cast has to wait while assistant director Rose Risi reprises her role as Animal Rescue Girl to deal with a hungry fan.
