DRINKING HABITS
October 4 to 12, 2024
A farce by Tom Smith
Directed by Nicola Payton
Accusations, mistaken identities, and romances run wild in this traditional, laugh-out-loud farce. Two nuns at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing have been secretly making wine to keep the convent’s doors open, but Paul and Sally, reporters and former fiancees, are hot on their trail. They go undercover as a nun and priest, but their presence, combined with the addition of a new nun, spurs paranoia throughout the convent that spies have been sent from Rome to shut them down. Wine and secrets are inevitably spilled as everyone tries to preserve the convent and reconnect with lost loves.
PUSS IN BOOTS
December 13 to 21, 2024
A Pantomime by Stuart Ardern
Directed by Carl Bishop
Join us for the purr-fect Pantomime. Poor Tom! His father, the miller, has died. Tom, our hero, is bequeathed a cat in his father’s will. An unusual cat. A cat with the gift of the gab. A gift for getting Tom into trouble – and out of it again in his quest to marry a princess.
Packed with music, dance, comedy and of course audience participation, Puss in Boots will be your purr-fect accompaniment to your Christmas celebrations, ‘Oh yes it will!’
STEEL MAGNOLIAS
January 31 to February 15, 2025
A drama by Robert Harling
Directed by Angela Woodard
All the ladies who are “anybody” come to gossip and have their hair done by Truvy in her Chinquapin, Louisiana salon. Sharing their stories, laughs and tears, Steel Magnolias is the much-loved hit play featuring six amazing women who draw upon their strength and love to meet the challenges of life. Part comedy of manners, part heartfelt tearjerker, and featuring non-stop banter and wisecracks, this play about friendship, community, and the power of the human spirit.
THE McADO
April 25 to May 10, 2025
A comic operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan
Directed by Sean Anderson
It’s the show you love, in a brand new setting! The Mikado has been moved to the highlands of Scotland and becomes The McAdo.
The McAdo, or “The Town of Ballydew”, a refreshing take on Gilbert & Sullivan’s The Mikado, featuring all the music and dialogue you know and love, but with a wee Scottish twist… This new production relocates the beloved comic opera from Japan to a fictional clan in the Scottish Highlands, where warriors and clansfolk combat love, death and obscure laws. With joyous songs, Scottish dances and Highland-inspired dress, this is The Mikado as you’ve never seen it before.
In this adaptation by Gilbert & Sullivan Austin, Gilbert’s libretto and Sullivan’s score has been kept virtually intact, while the costumes will reflect the Scottish moors. It’s a farcical tale of a wand’ring minstrel, a cowardly executioner, an iron-fisted ruler, and some of the greatest songs in musical theatre!
GUYS AND DOLLS
April 11th to 19th, 2025
Music & Lyrics by Frank Loesser | Book by Jo Swerling & Abe Burrows
A Co-Production with MisFit Theatre YYC
Director: Jeremy Walker & Krista Willott
Music Director: Joseph Fernando
Choreographer: Nimue Nova
Guys and Dolls is a musical romantic comedy involving the unlikeliest of Manhattan pairings: a high-rolling gambler and a puritanical missionary, a showgirl dreaming of the straight-and-narrow and a crap game manager who is anything but.
Guys and Dolls takes us from the bustle of Times Square to the dance clubs of Havana to the sewers of New York City as it demonstrates the great lengths to which a guy will go when he truly falls in love with a “doll.” Guys and Dolls features some of Frank Loesser’s most memorable tunes, including the hilarious “Adelaide’s Lament,” the romantic “I’ve Never Been in Love Before,” the exuberant “If I Were a Bell,” and the classic “Luck Be a Lady.”
