A Midsummer Night’s Dream – Belleville

Pinnacle Playhouse 256 Pinnacle Street, Belleville, Ontario

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is one of Shakespeare’s most well-loved comedies. Join us at the Pinnacle Playhouse from November 28th to December 15th. Evening shows run from 7:30 to 10:00 and the Sunday matinees run from 2:00 to 4:30pm. “The course of true love never did run smooth,” says Lysander, and so it is for four young romantics who run from the world that seeks to keep them apart and into the night woods where they are ensnared in the surreal realm of the Fairies. This is no flowery haven but the playground of the quarreling Titania and Oberon and his fairy subject Puck who ensures that his master’s love potion throws all who enter into a dizzying dream where he can beguile and bend them. Caught in this dreamy web are the hapless ham actors from town who think to secretly rehearse their craft by night in the woods but flee from their hilarious leader Nick Bottom who becomes the toy of the fairy prankster Puck. As the sun sets, step into the spellbound woods and discover that the desires and dreams of young indulged lovers are no less passionate than those of the “hempen homespun” Nick Bottom and awaken to a world of hearts made kinder by the power of love and imagination.

Christmas in Rosewood – Theatre in the Wings

Theatre in the Wings 30 Bridge Street East, Belleville

Please join us for this rollicking comedy by Peter Paylor. Dr. Sheila Shuman is a best-selling author. She’s one of the world’s leading experts on happiness. She’s known around the world by her pen name, Doctor Happy. But she’s stuck in Rosewood. On Christmas Eve. At the Elk’s Hall. In a blizzard. It’s the last place on earth she wants to be. She’s not happy. No, she’s not happy at all. And she’s not the only one who’s stuck. Dianne is stuck at the Gas Bar…about to give birth. That’s okay, though, she’s got Tim there to help. He’s only a teenager, but he lives on a cattle ranch, so he already knows the ropes. Christine is stuck at the Rosewood Model Railroad Club at a potluck with Brian on the worst first date ever. Things could be worse, though. At least they have meatballs and eggnog. Two sad Santas are stuck with each other. Esther is stuck at the funeral parlour with Rose…and Carl…their mutual late ex-husband. It seems everyone is stuck somewhere they don’t want to be until…suddenly…they all discover that they’re in the right place. In Rosewood. At Christmas. Tickets are available online through Eventbrite or call (613) 403-7329 to reserve by phone. “I laughed more at this play than I have ever laughed at any play I’ve read before. And I’m surprised to be saying that because I’m a tough audience. This play is a cross between Garrison Keillor and Andy of Mayberry.” – Norm Foster
