They manage to persuade four fellow Women\u2019s Institute members to pose nude with them for an \u201calternative\u201d calendar, with a little help from hospital porter and amateur photographer Lawrence. The calendar is a success, but Chris and Annie\u2019s friendship is put to the test under the strain of their newfound fame. Tickets HERE<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

WHAT WILL OUR 29th SEASON HOLD?<\/strong> We are seeking experienced and passionate DIRECTORS, and we also invite the community to make proposals for SHOWS to be produced during our 2023\/2024 season! We look for WELL-KNOWN SHOWS with HIGH AUDIENCE POTENTIAL that fall within our four show categories (Farce, Holiday, Contemporary, Gilbert & Sullivan). Please email letters of interest to Sean Anderson, Artistic Director, Morpheus Theatre at info@morpheustheatre.ca<\/a><\/p>\n

Morpheus Theatre is also looking to partner with playwrights and directors to bring their new one-act plays to next year’s Calgary Region One-Act Play Festival.\u00a0 Morpheus has rehearsal space, props, costumes, and mentoring available for the right project.\u00a0 One-act plays should support female, non-binary and BIPOC artists.<\/p>\n

BOOK DRIVE FUNDRAISER<\/strong> – Although Morpheus Theatre will not be holding a book sale this year, we are conducting a major book drive for \u201cBooks Between Friends\u201d. Donations will be accepted until Feb 11. Books may be left in the lobby of the Parkdale Community Centre on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., or if you are attending one of our shows, can be brought to the Pumphouse when you come to see Calendar Girls<\/em>.<\/p>\n
