2025 Shows
Thumbelina
Tiny Thumbelina has always felt out of place in her protective mother's big world... until the day she finally hears about people just like her - fairies! Soon, Thumbelina finds herself lost in the woods and caught in the middle of an ageless conflict between the Fairies and the Toads, with Thumbelina herself as a bargaining chip. It will take all of Thumbelina's creativity, wit, and skill with a sword to find her way home again.
This campy and adventurous world premiere by local emerging playwright Jakob Kopytko will be directed by Kaleidoscope Theatre for Young People's Pat Rundell*.
Best for: ages 6+
Running time: approximately 2 hours, with an intermission Content information: Thumbelina is based on the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale and therefore features themes of marriage and consent.
The Emporer's New Threads
The always-fashionable Emperor is in desperate need of a new outfit to wear to the Royal Procession and has absolutely no idea what to do! Enter Felix Saggenbottom and Cornelius Phibbs, two down-on-their-luck tricksters who promise that they will make a look so incredible that only those who are "good at their jobs" can see it. Wanting to impress, the whole town pretends to see what isn't there - everyone, that is, except one very smart kid.
This very silly story won awards across Canada on it's premiere tour. Our production will be directed by local comedy duo Robin Nichol* and Jessica Buchanan.
Best for: ages 3+
Running time: appoximately 60 minutes
Content information: Tricks and silly adults
