We wish to thank you all for your patience over the last several months – we have nearly finished the process of changing to our new systems, but of course we are still learning.

Morpheus Production Centre Now Accepting Rentals!<\/h4>\n

Morpheus’ New Production Centre in Highfield (1155E – 44 Avenue SE) is now accepting bookings for smaller productions at our new rehearsal studio – Studio C! As the space is still a work in progress, we are offering a reduced rate for our renters.<\/p>\n

We are also starting to rent set pieces (wall flats, doors, windows, archways, risers and steps). Call for details!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

UPCOMING EVENTS!<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n

\"\"<\/a>Apr 3 – 5<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0Calgary Region One-Act Play Festival<\/strong><\/a> – This year Morpheus sponsored Art & Wellness Elevation’s production of Bambi<\/em> by Madisson Vermeulen being performed Apr 3.<\/p>\n

Apr 11 – 19<\/strong> – GUYS AND DOLLS<\/strong><\/a> (Co-Production with MisFit Theatre YYC) – It\u2019s time to roll those dice as this beloved musical takes a bow! A screwball romantic comedy, Guys and Dolls takes us into the heart of 1950s New York and includes toe-tapping musical theatre classics such as \u201cSit Down, You\u2019re Rockin\u2019 The Boat\u201d and \u201cLuck Be a Lady\u201d. Season Subscibers get 20% off – call or email the office for details.<\/p>\n

Apr 13 – 14<\/strong> – Casino Fundraiser –<\/strong> Every 18 months or so the Alberta Government grants Morpheus a license to hold a casino as a fundraiser. These casinos bring in up to $70,000 for our use in putting on shows. To make these casinos work we need to fill some 36-38 shifts \u2013 at roughly $2,000 per volunteer shift, this can be a great way to support Morpheus! Backup volunteers still needed –\u00a0 Please sign up HERE<\/a><\/p>\n
