Spring Shorts: Three One Act Plays

Yellow Point Drama Group presents “SPRING SHORTS” running March 24th to April 9th at the Cedar Community Hall.   The production features three dynamic short plays filled with humor and heart.  The first is “The Ugly Duckling” written by Winnie the Pooh creator A.A.Milne.  The fairy tale fable follows the story of a royal princess whose parents, the king and queen, are desperate to see married off.  Unfortunately, a family curse has caused suitors to see her as being plain until one day a traveling prince sees her for what she truly is.   Next up is “On Ice” by local playwright Gordon McInnis.   The setting is a hockey arena as an ardent Canucks’ fan takes the seat next to a man whose mind is elsewhere.  The cheering fan and the preoccupied man eventually find they have more in common than just the game. The third play is by another local writer, Barrie Baker.   “Departure Lounge” features two women with family Christmas plans waiting to board their flight.  Their chance meeting soon leads them to rethink what they really want to do over the holidays. This entertaining theatrical event has something for everyone, and we invite you to join in the experience.  From March 24th to April 9th shows are Friday, Saturday evenings, doors at 7:00 pm and curtain at 7:30 pm with Sunday matinees, doors at 1:30 pm, curtain at 2:00 pm.  Advance tickets available at yellowpointdramagroup.org or by reservation at 250-722-2459.  Tickets may also be purchased at the door by cheque or cash.  Adults- $25.00  Students- $15.00.
