Opening Night - Happy Birthday to Me!

This season, I decided to give myself an Opening Night and share it with you all. I picked a show that I loved and that I felt showed one of the best that Canada has to offer in terms of playwrights and that I felt that Walterdale could do very, very well. I do not think you will be disappointed. Mary Jane Kreisel and her crack team of Theatre Artists on both sides of the boards have worked incredibly hard and with a phenomenal amount of dedication and passion to bring this piece to life. So, welcome to the 52nd Season at Walterdale and come share a slice of Perfect Pie tonight, or sometime during the run!

Perfect Pie

Our first show up on deck this season is Perfect Pie, by renowned Canadian playwright Judith Thompson. For more information on Thompson you can start with this:

Perfect Pie tells the story of the childhoods of Patsy and Marie and the impact it had on their later lives. It is told in flashbacks as the adult Patsy and Marie (now Francesca) meet after many years to revisit their past and the event that led to their separation. The four characters onstage are amazing opportunities for any actress and the themes of changing friendships and survival are universal that are sure to appeal to a variety of audience members.

We hope you get a chance to check this work out on our stage.
