YOU ARE HERE
by Daniel MacIvor

In fluidly madcap style, one of Canada's most distinctive and influential post-modern playwrights takes us on a voyage in flashback through the not-so-extraordinary life of a woman named Alison.

THE REAL INSPECTOR HOUND/AFTER MAGRITTE
by Tom Stoppard

Directed by Barbara Larose & Ellen Green
January 21 - February 5, 2011

Hound is an ingenious whodunit based on Agatha Christies famously long-running The Mousetrap. Magritte is a surreal domestic comedy involving a ballroom-dancing couple, his tuba-playing mum, and a couple of coppers. More Info
