On A First Name Basis

 
A hit comedy from Norm Foster, Canada’s most beloved playwright!

 

When veteran stage director Jeremy Dutton saw a production of Norm Foster’s play ‘On A First Name Basis’ in St. Catharines recently he knew two things right away: first, the show is a deliciously irresistible winner, and second, he just had to bring it here to Perth.

On A First Name Basis is one of Norm Foster’s more recent plays, and it proves that the tools he has wielded so skillfully for years as a playwright — humour, heart, and humanity — have become even sharper with age.

This is a simple, intimate, remarkably engaging show starring two of the Studio Theatre’s finest veteran actors, Hugh McCulloch and Krista Duff. In the hands of these two mature and capable players –and under the direction of Jeremy Dutton, known for his skill with humour as well as drama — On A First Name Basis is a play that’s well worth getting to know.

Bingo Ladies

STUDIO THEATRE PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS : BINGO LADIES

A New Musical by Grant Tilly – Directed by C.Lee Bates

Lucky charms, big dreams and a troll named Thor. It’s Friday night at the bingo hall and the gloves are off! Carol needs to pay off her debts. Sandi’s hot for Lou, the rock n’ roll bingo caller.  And there’s Irene, the cranky old know-it-all, oxygen tank in tow, who always wins. When Carol steals Irene’s lucky spot, it sets off a course of events that none of them could have predicted. A brand new musical about friendship, gambling and just how far you’ll go for the big win.

Bingo Ladies is co-production of Studio Theatre and Indie Women Production.  This is a charity event in support of the Jillian O’Conner Children’s Education Fund. There will be a silent auction and other fun event in the theatre lobby at each performance.

London Suite

STUDIO THEATRE PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS : LONDON SUITE

17

 

Neil Simon’s rich comedy of four separate stories that take place in the same hotel suite at different times of the year.
A writer holds  a gun on his agent, who, he believes, has embezzled all the money from his book sales. A middle-aged New York widow on a shoe-buying expedition in London with her daughter, meets a rich Scotsman and wonders if she’s ready for a change in lifestyle. An Oscar-winning actress and her former husband, now divorced and are seeing each other for the first time in years. He needs money for his lover who is dying of cancer. This bitter-sweet story has a twist in the tale. Finally, a couple’s vacation plans are disrupted when they lose their Wimbledon tickets and possibly their hotel room to a Hollywood star.

 The Last Deadman

BarnDoor Theatre Presents “The Last Deadman”: David Jacklin’s legendary drama with music about Canada’s last fatal duel.

First performed in 1983 (the 150th anniversary of the duel), this intense drama looks at the effect of the duel on its victor — a man who very nearly became Canada’s first prime minister!

More than simply a story of a lady’s slighted honour, the duel had far-reaching consequences for the shaping of our nation.

Told with drama, music, humour and excitement, it is a challenging and surprising multi-media theatrical event.

Studio Theatre Perth Presents Hilda’s Yard

Hilda's YardHilda’s Yard, opening February 5th at the Studio Theatre, is vintage Foster. Set in 1956, it’s the story of Sam and Hilda Fluck (yes, Fluck) who find themselves blessedly alone after their children, Gary and Janey, have finally flown the family nest. But alas, both kids turn out to be boomerangs, sailing back home faster than you can say lost job and failed marriage. Meanwhile, Sam Fluck may lose his own job because he took time off work to buy a TV set so he and Hilda can watch Gunsmoke, and son Gary is nervously hiding from a bookie to whom he owes money. Yup, this is vintage Foster alright…touching, a little silly, very funny, and loaded with situations any family (OK, most families) can relate to.

Director Roberta Peets helms this wonderful show with a generous dollop of her own heart thrown in. She was attracted to Hilda’s Yard by its heart-warming characters and the nostalgic tug of the 1950s setting.

Hilda’s Yard premieres at the fully accessible Studio Theatre, 63 Gore Street E. in Perth, on Thursday, February 5th, with performances February 5, 6, 7, 13, 14 at 8:00 pm, and February 8 and 15 at 2:00 pm. Regular tickets are $22 at The Book Nook, 60 Gore St. E. (cash only); Tickets Please, 39 Foster St. (613-485-6434;ticketsplease.ca; credit cards accepted, a convenience fee applies) and Shadowfax, 67 Foster St. (613-267-6817; shadowfax.on.ca; credit cards accepted, a convenience fee applies). Tickets are $24 at the door, and students with ID pay just $10 at the door on show nights.

So don’t miss your chance to peek over Hilda’s fence, starting February 5th. If you like crowd pleasing shows with plenty of laughs and a happy ending, Hilda’s Yard is the night out you’ve been longing for
