One Body too many

 

Barn Door Productions presents ONE BODY TOO MANY at Full Circle Theatre, February 14, 15, 20, 21, 22, 27, 28, 29 at 8pm, and February 16, 23 and March 1 at 2pm.

A silly haunted-house romp based on a 1944 movie. Originally written as a vehicle for Jack Hailey (aka Oz’s Tin Man). Cyrus J. Rutherford, a screwball… sorry, eccentric millionaire, dies and his heirs gather to split up the loot. Instead, they end up splitting heirs. Then brave insurance agent Albert Tuttle solves the mysteries and sorts out the mess – and, of course, finds romance along the way. This is just silly, silly fun that will heat up the February chills and get the 10W40 winter blood flowing.

Reserved tickets $20; Door $22; Student $10. Payment by cash at performance.

 

Date :
Friday, Feb.14, 2020 from 8pm to 9:30pm

Christmas Day!

 

Many Canadians have a day off work on December 25 and many spend the day with close relatives or friends. It is customary to exchange gifts, enjoy a special festive meal and, perhaps, attend a special church service.

In some Canadian families and in the United States, a mythical figure called Santa Claus brings gifts. He travels on a sleigh pulled by reindeer, enters homes via the chimney and leaves presents and candy in Christmas stockings or in a pile under the Christmas tree. In other families, individual members exchange carefully selected gifts. Popular gifts are toys, games and candy for children and clothes, music, alcohol and practical or luxury items for adults. Canadians may open their presents on Christmas Eve after a special church service or during the morning or after lunch on Christmas Day.

The original meaning of Christmas is a special church service, or mass, to celebrate the birth of Christ. The story of the Nativity, or the events surrounding the birth of Jesus, are particularly important in religious celebrations of Christmas. However, many traditions that are around today have their roots in pre-Christian winter festivals. These include the importance of candles and decorations made from evergreen bushes and tree, symbolizing everlasting light and life.
