The Last Post

Romantic Comedy

Written & directed by Marc Belanger

The Post – a newspaper in a small Canadian town – is shutting down. It’s the last Post in North America. And suddenly it strikes everybody that they may never see their friends and colleagues again.

Henry, the head of the pressroom decides to tell Victoria exactly what he thinks of her. Victoria, the paper’s star reporter, is busy getting ready to leave for a new job in Florida with Paul Roberts the publisher. And in the midst of it all Mrs Baker, the crotchety cleaning lady, is scheming with Isabelle the receptionist to make love bloom. The Last Post, by Peterborough playwright Marc Bélanger, is a nice romantic comedy - full of laughs and just perfect for a summer evening .

Murder Takes the Stage

Mystery

by James Leach
Directed by Sarah Tye (Mentor Director)

This exciting mystery is about a Summer Theater, run by one Jane Bond, where a new play's being rehearsed to open the season. Mitzi, Jane's eager and lovely niece, has just joined the company. She's a crime stories addict and she's the heroine of the ensuing proceedings. Drew Pelman, the play's author, has somehow managed to sign Hazel Laverne, glamorous theater personality, to star. It's soon apparent Hazel is cordially detested by most of the troupe who know her professionally from the past. During a rehearsal, a gun supposedly loaded with blanks is fired at Hazel, and she plays a very convincing death scene - for she's truly dead! The local Sheriff and Mitzi set a most ingenious trap for the murderer.

The action is always plausible and keeps audiences thrilled.
