We acknowledge and honour the land upon which we gather as the
historic and traditional territory of First Nations peoples. In particular
we recognize and thank the Neutral Nation, the Mississauga and the
Haudenosaunee for their stewardship of these lands over millennia.

1.800.511.SHAW 2
My second season This company has amazing musical
performers. Grand Hotel is a blockbuster
is a chance to put musical with a bit of everything: passion,
into practice what crime, laughter, a wonderful score and
great dancing.
I learnt in my first.
Our audience loves brilliant writing, for
So, what did young or old. The Magician’s Nephew will
bring C.S. Lewis’ legendary world of Narnia
I learn? Well … to life in a show for all the family.
We all love a bit of pure escapism. Sherlock
Holmes in The Hound of the Baskervilles
marks the return of the murder mystery
to The Shaw, in a script that bursts with
life and intrigue.
Stephen Fry is even more dazzling in person
than on screen. I knew that already, because
he is my friend. But no one should miss the
chance to hear one of the geniuses of the
age telling the greatest stories of all time –
in his own special way!
We are suckers for romance. Stage Kiss
is not just a hilarious backstage comedy,
it also has a really beautiful heart. Then
there’s our double-bill of comedies —
Of Marriage and Men and our Lunchtime
one-act O’Flaherty V.C. — that show Bernard
Shaw at his dazzling, mischievous best. And
then there’s our cracking Studio season,
Secret Theatre and so much more!
Oh, and I learnt that we have the best
audience in the world. Come and be part
of it. After all, theatre is one of those basic
human needs: you can do it on your own,
but it’s so much better in company.
Let’s get together.

A Christmas Carol
“What’s Christmas to you, but
a time for finding yourself a year
older, but not an hour richer?”
By Charles Dickens
Adapted for the stage and originally directed by Tim Carroll
Music direction by Paul Sportelli
Designed by Christine Lohre
Lighting designed by Kevin Lamotte
Movement and puppetry by Alexis Milligan
Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserable old miser. But when three ghosts
decide to swoop in overnight, he gets the wake-up call of a lifetime.
This charming Christmas classic by Charles Dickens has one of life’s
most inspiring questions at its heart: what — and who — will really
matter in the end? Fun for everyone (even Scrooges).

47 shawfest.comSTAY THE NIGHT Bliss. It’s where vineyards sprawl under the summer sun,
and wine is sipped by the sunset, not the glass. Where you hail a
horse-drawn carriage, instead of a taxi. Where you can perfect your
swing on North America’s oldest golf course, and then be transformed
by an evening of world-class theatre. Where every street sparkles
with historic charm and the locals have a distinctly warm sense of
hospitality. Blissful Niagara-on-the-Lake welcomes you.
