in the Studio Theatre

​In 1792, John Simcoe, first Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada, sails from Kingston to Niagara when a violent storm forces him to shelter in Wellington, the home of Daniel Reynolds. The storm passes, and Lord Simcoe is carried on to Niagara for the opening of the Upper Canada legislature. But when his wife is taken ill, he is forced to leave her behind with Reynolds. Then the story moves forward a couple of hundred years to the modern day, and a hilarious culture clash ensues when a big-city historian tries to rope a skeptical local librarian and “gatekeeper” into her vision for their small town of Smoke Ville.
