Amazing story. Such a legend this man is. I was so entranced with everything that happened with him. Still wondering how he didn’t break.

FlyBoy is a compelling story that will stay with you after the show. This remarkable true story of an Edmonton man is revealed in his own words and in letters to and from his Edmonton family. A powerful, moving play, definitely worth seeing.

Very poignant, stark enthralling story of unbelievable strength, courage and endurance. To be drawn into the world of this extraordinary man is eye opening and such a privilege!

My husband and I were very impressed with the reading of your play. It will be wonderful to see the staged production and I will be there with friends. You’ve done a fabulous job bringing to life your father’s complex story. It felt so real.

I’m awed that you were able to take a monumental story and make it relatable and real. Even with a bare reading I was caught up in your father’s story. It’s a history that should not be forgotten.

-J. Beacham

This was absolutely a classic – the National Film Board needs to be contacted – this is a piece of Canada’s history, and having your father’s actual voice is incredibly powerful, Devon!! I hope it gets held over so my friend can see it!! You are a fine story teller!!!

Congrats on your Fringe Show! Poignant yet funny. I found myself tearing up several times. A glimpse into the past, with a commentary on our present. “…we’re all suckers”. So good!

Hey Devon, caught your show today and it was fabulous!! Made me laugh , cry and remember stories my mum told me about that period of time. And your words and descriptions created a movie for me – a really good one.
Wonderful job and so very brave of you to take that on.

I hope you are pleased with the result.

My wife and I had the pleasure of attending your show yesterday at the Edmonton Fringe Festival. We very much enjoyed it and want to thank you for bringing it us.
Much appreciated. Thanks.

The Edmonton Journal is way off them out when they rate this two stars out of five. I found it fascinating, well paced, and emotional to the point where I was a little teary-eyed in a couple of places. A single person performance, (not counting the stage hands )
It is a really great show that I would rate four out of five.

The play last night was absolutely extraordinary. It captured the journey of a young Canadian man who became a pilot in the second world war with such honestly and emotional force. Watching the show made me realize the immense courage these men and women carried -and the heavy toll their service took on them. It was a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made for Canada in the Second World War and all the wars that followed that the Canadians fought in. I am grateful for the story being told so beautifully.
