THE INTERNATIONAL HIT SHOW THAT CAPTURES THE MUSIC, POLITICS, AND CULTURE OF THE 70s, 80s, AND 90s!

BOOM X picks up at Woodstock in August of ‘69, and takes us all the way to 1995, when the internet began to dominate our lives. Over the course of 100 minutes, Rick Miller plays over 100 colourful characters from the days of disco, the oil crisis, Watergate, the Cold War, video games, punk rock, the (second) British Invasion, and more. An explosive, inter-generational celebration of Canada, and its place in the world.

SYNOPSIS:

The time is now, but Judy is obsessed by the 1950s, or what she thinks that period was like based on old advertisements and TV commercials. So she is by choice a stay-at-home housewife who dresses and arranges her interior décor as though it was still 1950. This smart comedy, which won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Comedy (2019), wonders how long Judy can maintain her denial of present-day realities.

THE DROWSY CHAPERONE

Presented by: THEATRE ANCASTER

LOOK FOR MY FULL REVIEW COMING fEBRUARY 21!

PERFORMANCES:

February 20, 21, 27, 28 at 7:30 pm
February 22, March 1 at 2:00 pm

SYNOPSIS:

Hailed by New York Magazine as “The Perfect Broadway Musical,” The Drowsy Chaperone is a masterful meta-musical that lovingly pokes fun at the golden age of musical theatre. This Canadian musical was the winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Book and Best Original Score, featuring one show-stopping song and dance number after another.

As the houselights dim, a man settles into his easy chair and puts on his favourite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. The recording comes to life and under his loving and wryly humourous commentary The Drowsy Chaperone begins. Mix in two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theatre producer, a not-so-bright hostess, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan and an intoxicated chaperone, and you have the ingredients for an evening of madcap delight.
