Theatre in the time of Covid-19

Posted by

As you will know by now, there is no theatre while the current pandemic rages – not on Gabriola, not anywhere. Mounting alarm about the need to observe “social distancing” compelled us to cancel the final two performances of this month’s One-Act Play Festival.

Our heartfelt thanks to the six actors, two directors and dedicated crew who worked so hard to give audiences two wonderful shows. And our deep gratitude to the many people who had tickets for the cancelled performances and have told us to keep the money as a donation to keep us going during this difficult period.

If you weren’t fortunate enough to see one of the two performances, you can get a taste of what you missed in our Spring 2020 newsletter. Click here to view a copy.

Stay safe and we’ll see you again as soon as we can.
