Love Bomb – A Play with Music

The play was nominated for 3 Ovation Awards by the Applause Musical Society and earned the awards for “Outstanding Production, Small Ensemble” and “Outstanding Lead Performance.

The Love Bomb Project is a unique and innovative Crime Prevention/Awareness tool that breaks all social and cultural barriers to assist in combating Sex Exploitation and Human Trafficking. Shameless Hussy Productions and Cpl Harvey with the RCMP have partnered on this project since 2015, which has resulted in over 60 shows across BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Love Bomb itself is a rock show in a play that follows the story of a mother in search for her missing, teenaged daughter. In her search, she comes across the newest You Tube sensation, Justine Chambers. The lyrics to Justine’s hit song, Missing the Point, hit close to home for the mom, and she follows the clues to uncover more of the mystery surrounding what happened to her daughter. Don’t be fooled by the fictional characters that are depicted, because a large majority of the content is pulled from real life cases. The writer, Meghan Gardener, put in an exceedingly dedicated research effort, working with police and Crown prosecutors to create the most realistic version of events she could. Many of the circumstances in the play mirror what victims had gone through in the landmark R v Moazami case out of BC. This is just one more example as to what makes this play such a poignant and well received crime prevention tool.
