Kanata Theatre: the 38th season (2006-2007)

 

For The Love Of It

They say that when you do something “for the love of it”, it shows. Those that create the magic that is Kanata Theatre are proof of just that. Operating solely on the efforts of 250 volunteers, this theatre, well into its 38th season, is thrilled to be nominated for 3 Critic’s circle awards in the community theatre category: Brooke Keneford for Best Director for Noises Off; Noises Off for Best Production; and Beverley Brooks as Best Actor in The Beauty Queen of Leenane. Award announcements will be made November 27. While theatre members are pleased to have the critic’s attention, they are even more appreciative and attentive to the feedback that they receive from their audiences. If ever climbing attendance and sold out performances are any indication, the passion that has always inspired this group to the highest level of excellence is alive and strong.

Great news, you can see Beverley Brooks (nominated for best actor) in the current Kanata Theatre Production Happy Birthday Dear Alice (November 14-26, 8 p.m.). Bev skillfully portrays the stress and deep caring of a daughter caught in the demands of a successful career, and a needy elderly parent. Come out and enjoy the show.
