This is the currently running comedy production by TLQ at the Varscona Theatre, and it promises to be a good one! (like they all are)

TLQ show info
Edmonton Journal review

Screwball Comedy at Top Speed! A hit in the previous century, one of Teatro’s pioneering screwball comedies returns to the stage with all the velocity one might expect from a play whose characters include a champion swimmer, a race car driver, and serial divorcee.
Last seen in 1997, this enchantingly knockabout escapade depicts a mad society weekend in Cape Cod, circa 1966. It’s a play rife with romantic misunderstandings and and deliberate deceptions, with cast headed by Belinda Cornish, Andrew MacDonald-Smith, and Shannon Blanchet, all variously pursuing or pursued by Mat Busby, Kendra Connor, and Vincent Forcier. “Everybody dance! In THIS corner!”

We will be attending the show on Tuesday 22nd Oct @ 7:30pm.

Here's the good news - Tuesday is "Pay What You Can" at the door! For info, ticket prices normally range between $16 and $28.

PLEASE READ THIS NEXT BIT CAREFULLY, BECAUSE SIGNING UP FOR THIS EVENT WILL BE DONE DIFFERENTLY FROM THE USUAL EOC EVENT:
To attend this event with the EOC, when you sign up, you will initially go on the waitlist.
The EOC will not be obtaining any tickets for attendees, so please arrange to get your own ticket (see below).
Once you have obtained your ticket, please email me on ijm1903@yahoo.co.uk to advise that you have your ticket, and I will then add you to the event attendee list.

The best way to get tickets for this show is to call the theatre direct on 780-433-3399 and get them to reserve the tickets for you, and you do not need to prepay by this method.
Please note that when you collect the tickets, payment will be by CASH ONLY - no debit or credit cards. You can leave a voicemail if the theatre box office is not staffed.
I have ordered tickets from the Varscona by this method a few times and it has always worked well.

The ticket office opens for ticket collection/sales at 6:45pm, so we will meet at 6:45pm by the entrance to the Varscona Theatre.
Please be on time, so we can all get seats together. I will be wearing or carrying a yellow EOC baseball cap so you can spot me.
