Tickets are selling fast for Staff Room, the final show of Kanata Theatre’s 37th season. Tickets for the Tuesday May 30th performance are still available through the Ron Maslin Playhouse box office.

The hard-working cast and crew have been performing to sold out audiences for the last week. This play has struck a chord with so many west end residents. We all have such vivid memories of our high school days and people are coming to see if Joan Burrows (author of Staff Room) captured the heartbeat of the high school staff room.

Staff Room is a play that takes place over the course of one entire school year. There are fifteen true to life vignettes within the play that show a snippet of life within a high school staff room. This play shows that teachers are real people with everyday grievances and excitements and sometimes all they want is a cup of coffee.

While you are enjoying the show, remember to purchase your seasons tickets for Kanata Theatre's 38th upcoming season, which promises to entertain and delight. You can visit the box office or call them directly for more information at 831-4435.
