DIRECTOR’S NOTES
It’s no surprise that pantomimes continue to be an essential holiday tradition: hilarious new takes on familiar stories, twisted versions of our favourite songs, jokes both topical and downright corny. But pantos are also an opportunity to reinforce messages we all need to hear no matter our ages: be yourself, love yourself, and love others for their inner beauty. Enjoy! – Peter Zednik
PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Thank you for joining us for this bright and merry mayhem! It is heart-warming to see all the talented people who have worked so hard to bring this rousing romp to life for your enjoyment, and I thank them. You get out of life what you put into it. We are very proud to be able to donate most of the profits to a children’s charity, chosen by the director. We always have room for more people to help out backstage, so please call us on 604-983-2633. We wish you a peaceful festive season.
