| | Where You Are
by Kristen Da Silva
September 2-25, 2021
This romantic comedy opens with retired sisters, Suzanne and Glenda, sitting on the porch of their shared island home. While the retirees’ conversation covers ordinary town gossip, it also ventures into much saucier territory - in fact, no topic seems off limits. A visit from Suzanne’s daughter, Beth, highlights a strained mother-daughter relationship. The sisters are keeping an important secret from Beth that they can longer contain, and Beth also hasn’t been forthright with life-altering news. Hilarious scenes follow featuring the handsome next door neighbour, a wild wedding, and some medicinal experimentation. Intermingled throughout are candid conversations about love and life, and the conclusion will leave you wiping tears from your eyes. This production will be the Nova Scotian premiere of this new comedy by award-winning Canadian playwright Kristen Da Silva.
This show contains some coarse language and mature themes. It is recommended for persons aged 13+. | Buy Tickets |
| | Charles Dickens Writes A Christmas Carol
by Richard Quesnel
December 2-11, 2021
In 1843, 'A Christmas Carol' became one of the most popular books in the English language and has been credited by some as “almost single-handedly reviving the Christmas holiday.” In this adaptation of the holiday favourite, the audience sees the struggles faced by Charles Dickens in his writing of this classic novel. As Dickens creates the story, using only the power of his imagination and the inspiration gleaned from a small choir of wandering carolers, we not only see the beloved tale unfold of Ebenezer Scrooge and his amazing night of ghostly visitations, but find out why a Christmas Ghost-story was written in the first place. Infused with beautiful Victorian carols, dance, lots of humour and tender moments, this play by Canadian playwright Richard Quesnel will delight and inspire this Christmas season.
This production is perfect for the whole family and is suitable for persons aged 7+. | Buy Tickets |
