Our 2013 - 2014 Season

Rumors by Neil Simon

Picture
Oct 17, 18, 19, 20, 24, 25, 26 & 27, 2014

Rumors
was something to laugh about. Neil Simon's 1988 farce about possible murder and definite mayhem in the posh New York apartment of the city's deputy mayor, opened Elgin Theatre's Guild's 46th season

"A departure from Neil Simon's usual style, and his first farce, Rumors is a fast-paced gigglefest that engaged St.Thomas audiences in the first few minutes and kept them hooked until the outrageous twist at the end,"

Aladdin, the Panto by Peter Denyer

Picture
Dec 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, and 15th, 2014

Elgin Theatre Guild Presented  Aladdin the Pantomime.
Following up on the huge success of last year's Christmas Panto, Cinderella. The  young and old alike were delighted by a crazy cast of characters, a magic genie and even a flying carpet.


37 Postcards by Michael McKeever

Wacky families have historically been great subjects for playwrights to poke fun at, and the Sutton family pulls out all the stops. The house is sinking. Nana, presumed dead, is living in a little room off the kitchen. Aunt Ester operates a, shall we say, colourful business via the family phone line. The family dog (also believed dead) has been running wild in the yard for years, and mother is somehow unaware of any of this, bless her oblivious heart.

This is what the son, Avery, collides with when he returns home with his fiancée in tow after an 8 year tour of Europe. Avery is about to introduce Gillian to a family who, he admits, doesn’t come close to being normal and never has. Almost immediately Gillian is swept up and carried along by the zany energy powering this “well-appointed madhouse”.


Swing Dance by Lynda Martens

May 29, 30, 31 and June 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8th, 2014

How do aging and the loss of vivacity affect baby boomer couples?  What are the lengths we go to in order to feel young... connected... alive... attractive... wanted... loved? Swing Dance is the hilarious story of two very different baby boomer couples struggling with these questions, whose lives cross and affect each other profoundly. Newly retired Walter desperately employs bold pharmaceutical measures to reconnect with his wife Vicky after she launches a new cupcake career with her sophisticated partner Dante. Walter and Vicky are dealing with their own crisis, but neither is prepared for the bombshell that the visiting couple drop during appetizers!  Swing Dance is a hilarious sexy romp that respectfully and intensely explores the connection between vitality, intimacy and sexuality in the "mature" years.
