2026-2027 Main Theatrical Season:

THEME: Unmasking the Shadow

Stripping away the stories we tell ourselves and the masks we wear or misperceive on others to discover Truth.

From self-delusion and misperception to an awakening or enlightenment, each work this season explores a dynamic shift from initial perceptions and beliefs to the journey’s end with newfound realizations and understanding.

2026-2027 Main Season includes:

Dracula on Tour.
- Back by popular demand! This new play and its performances have developed since last year’s script-in-hand preview. Don’t miss this touring production. Opening Run mid-September through October, then available for BOOKING through June 2027. An interactive melodrama full of fun, romance, thrills and drama!
Don Quixote de la Mental Institution.
- A brand-new immersive, devised work. Play cards, take your pills, and watch Don Quixote struggle with his mental health. Features a tour de force performance on an epic scale by Carson Sloan, with support from the other patients and visitors on the ward (that’s YOU). February/March 2027 production and available for booking!
Sherlock Holmes: A Study in Scarlet.
- A new play based upon the plot and characters of the first ever Sherlock Holmes novel. The origin story of the Holmes & Watson bromance! (April 2027)

Dracula on Tour and Don Quixote are small-scale productions that tour. They are off-book (memorized).

SH: A Study in Scarlet is a script-in-hand performance of a brand-new play in development. Your responses help with the continued development of the work.

Our performances are lively, and tour to intimate venues for interactivity, engagement and FUN!

SEPT / OCT 2026 – Dracula: a melodrama

Exciting Productions and Events 2026-2027 web page - a graphic showing Dracula reflected in mirror panels in the style of a vintage carnival or circus poster

The lone wolf howl warns of imminent danger to those who live in the daylight.

BACK by popular demand! Last year’s new work in development has continued to evolve its script and performances!… Bram Stoker’s immortal Gothic thriller is re-imagined as an interactive melodrama, conceived for local audiences. Prepare to Cheer for our heroes and join the chorus of boos for every dastardly deed as Dracula feeds on society and corrupts all around him.

Will the flirtatious Lucy Westenra and pure-hearted Mina Murray survive the Count’s hypnotic beckoning?
Will the obsessed Professor Van Helsing succeed in vanquishing the foul fiend and will Renfield be a hindrance or a help?
And will Jonathan Harker muster the love and courage to save Mina from the clutches of the diabolical Count?

Enjoy a play with thrilling suspense, tongue-in-cheek humor and earnest drama. Don’t miss this sensational, spine-tingling tale where you are a villain or support the last line of defense!
