Labrador, according to TJ Dawe, in his one-man comic monologue about the northeastern Canadian province of the same name, "is a landscape God forgot to draw." In fact, in Dawe's whiteout universe of implausible questions with no good answers (How do mirrors work? Why do we have silent letters?), Labrador is the most impenetrable of enigmas.

Dawe had to go to Labrador for a tour of a children's theater performance. But he has turned his experience into a delightful hourlong rumination on acting, literature, family, travel, self-discovery and the salubrious effects of a home-made alcoholic concoction when imbibed in a minus-30 degree night. Labrador is definitely a trip worth taking.
