by John Patrick Shanley

It's Opening Week and the excitement mounts! Outside Mullingar is loosely categorized as a 'romantic comedy', but it is much more than that. John Patrick Shanley has created a poetic and touching story about how it's never too late to take a chance on love. Join us this Friday, April 26 for the Opening Night Gala, when you can meet the cast after the show while nibbling on delicious appetizers. The show runs April 26 - May 11.

But as Shakespeare and his acting company investigate the plot, they discover that the King's version of the story might be a cover-up. Read more details on our website.

Like many arts organizations, Shuswap Theatre relies on grants and donations to be able to bring quality productions to you, upgrade our equipment and keep our building in good condition. Howard DeLong works diligently to apply for grants, both locally and provincially. We appreciate all your efforts, Howard.

This year, the City of Salmon Arm provided a grant of $2700 towards a new computer, and Shuswap Rotary Club provided $5000 towards a heat pump in the dressing room. Both have been very generous to us over the years. We are very grateful.
