2025/2026 Season Shows
The Foursome - May 28 - June 7, 2026
By Norm Foster​

Rick, Ted, Donnie, and Cameron are home for their fifteen-year college reunion; a great time to go out for a game of golf and catch up on each other’s lives. Unlike their college days, the conversation doesn’t include talk of beer and final exams, but of colonoscopies, home-security systems, alcoholism, Buddhism, and more. 
First Produced: 1998 at Theatre on the Grand, Fergus, Ontario.

TOP GIRLS
September 10-20, 2026
Written By: Caryl Churchill
​

Marlene has been promoted to managing director of a London employment agency and is celebrating. The symbolic luncheon is attended by women in legend or history who offer perspectives on maternity and ambition. In a time warp, these ladies are also her co-workers, clients, and relatives. Marlene, like her famous guests, has had to pay a price to ascend from proletarian roots to the executive suite: she has become, figuratively speaking, a male oppressor, and even coaches female clients on adopting odious male traits. Marlene has also abandoned her illegitimate and dull-witted daughter. Her emotional and sexual life has become as barren as Lady Macbeth's.

A Stork Club Story Tickets
A STORK CLUB STORY - A WORLD PREMIERE
November 5-15, 2026
By Paul Regan & Brett McCaig

​Big band music. First love. Second chances. And a letter that could change everything.
Set between the golden glow of a 1950s lakeside dance hall and the quiet shadows of an attic decades later, A Stork Club Story is a sweeping, funny, and deeply heartfelt new stage play about memory, music, and the moments that define a lifetime.
When an aging Mitch searches through the remnants of his past before selling the family home, long-buried memories come flooding back — transporting us to the vibrant heyday of the Stork Club, where swing ruled the dance floor and dreams were as big as the brass section. There, a young and impulsive trumpet player collides with a sharp-witted coat check girl who may just be the love of his life — if pride, rivals, ambition, and circumstance don’t get in the way.
With a colorful cast of small-town characters, rapid-fire comedy, and the pulse of live big band energy woven throughout, this original production dances effortlessly between past and present. At its heart lies a simple but powerful question: What do we hold onto when everything else is slipping away?
Filled with humor, nostalgia, and emotional resonance, A Stork Club Story celebrates the music that moves us, the risks that shape us, and the enduring power of love — even when memory falters.
Don’t miss the world premiere of this unforgettable new Canadian play — where the band is swinging, the stakes are high, and some stories are simply too important to forget.

ROMEO & JULIET
February 11-21, 2027
By: William Shakespeare
​

Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare is reimagined in a lively assisted living facility, where ages are playfully reversed: elderly actors take on the roles of Romeo and Juliet, while younger performers portray parents, authority figures, and caretakers.
Set among the bustling halls and recreation rooms, this inventive production uncovers fresh comedy in Shakespeare’s classic while offering a heartfelt reflection on love, dignity, and the bonds between generations.
