NOVA SCOTIA
JULY 12 + 26 + AUGUST 9
FIELD TRIPS
Looking to catch some incredible summer theatre outside of the city?
​
Maybe make a few fun stops en route? Well, what better way to do all that than with a good old fashioned Field Trip! Let us do the driving in a comfortable passenger bus with wifi and air conditioning. We'll make some stops along the way so you can enjoy some scenery and snacks, art and animals, and of course -- a meal! All of this will culminate in the main event: a performance at one of Nova Scotia's incredible rural professional theatre companies!
​
Before or after the shows we'll have an exclusive chat with some of the artists involved before we make one last stop at the market for an ice cream or a snack on the way home. New this year: a late-night fireside show at Ross Creek!
​
Tickets are $125 for each trip, including lunch!​​

You can also book your seats by calling us in the office at 902-466-2769!

ABOUT SLEEPY HOLLOW:
This new musical adaptation is a fresh take on one of the spookiest stories ever written, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving. The award-winning creators behind Two Planks’ productions of Animal Farm and Frankenstein re-imagine the life of Ichabod Crane and the residents of the village of Sleepy Hollow around the fire, featuring some spine-tingling puppetry and a brilliant score.

ABOUT CHASE THE ACE:
Big-city radio personality Charlie King just lost his job hosting a hit morning show. And his long-term relationship exploded in a spectacularly embarrassing on-air meltdown. When he's forced to take a job managing a small-town station, he has no idea what’s in store!
Not only does a global pandemic begin his first week in Port Belette, he quickly finds himself chasing a story of municipal corruption. Chase the Ace is a hilarious one-man comedy about a down-on-his-luck DJ, a local lottery, and the search for truth in unprecedented times.

ABOUT AREA 33:
Chloe lost her mother to addiction several years ago and has been raised ever since under the not so tender care of her extended family in a small fishing village on the East Coast. She has learned to live like a stray and has a lively mind inclined to game the system when bored. Her Uncle Sheldon lets her live in a room off his lobster pound and recognizing her talents for numbers, gets her involved in some of the increasingly risky areas of his business. Area 33 is about trust, lobsters and the search for signs of intelligent life one summer at the Shag Harbour UFO Museum.
