KWLT2020 Season
WELCOME TO 2020: A SEASON OF AWESOME LOCAL THEATRE. Eventually.
We don’t know for sure when our next season will be presented, but when it is, it will look a lot like the following:

The Last Resort
The Last Resort
By Norm Foster and Leslie Arden
Directed by Elizabeth Munzy
A big city restaurant owner running from the mob arrives in the last place on earth he thinks they’ll find him – a hotel in rural Saskatchewan. But someone there wants him dead. Is it one or both of the identical twin sisters? The couple on their second honeymoon? The crazy hotel proprietress? The flirtatious poet? The agent assigned to protect him? Or the mysterious piano player that hardly says a word? Can you figure out whodunit?
God of Hell
God of Hell

Directed by Peter Aitchison

After an old friend of Frank’s comes to visit, Frank and Emma are unknowingly, thrust into a government conspiracy that may have permanent consequences for the entire country. Following on the heels of their guest is Mr. Welch a government man who exhibits Patriotism in the face of almost certain destruction.
Wyrd Sisters
Wyrd Sisters
By Terry Pratchett and Stephen Briggs
Directed by Liz Delahunty
Terry Pratchett takes Shakespeare’s Macbeth and then turns it up ’till the knob comes off. It’s all there – a wicked duke and duchess, the ghost of the murdered king, dim soldiers, strolling players, a land in peril. And who stands between the Kingdom and destruction? Three witches. Granny Weatherwax (intolerant, self-opinionated, powerful), Nanny Ogg (down-to-earth, vulgar) and Magrat Garlick (naïve, fond of occult jewellery and bunnies).
Falling: A Wake
Falling: A Wake
BY GARY KIRKHAM
DIRECTED BY DANI ROSENBAUM
Harold and Elsie are a retired couple living on a chicken farm in a small, isolated Ontario town. One night, a plane explodes in the sky above their home, and litters their field with debris, including the body of a young man, still strapped in his airplane seat. Elsie refuses to leave the boy alone outside, and Harold spends the night trying to keep her comfortable while she keeps the boy company. Harold and Elsie find themselves confronting their own past experiences, trauma, and grief while watching over the stranger in their field. The play is unexpectedly light and funny in parts, and it deals with the themes of grief, loss, and acceptance in a truly touching way.
Zastrozzi, Master of Discipline
Hover Box Element
BY GEORGE F. WALKER
DIRECTED BY MATT WALSH
For three years, the master criminal Zastrozzi has been consumed by a quest for revenge. His target Verezzi has lost touch with reality and believes himself a messiah; only the tireless efforts of Verezzi’s “tutor” have kept the artist alive and free. Zastrozzi and his cohorts have tracked Verezzi to a small French town, at last launching a plot to satisfy Zastrozzi’s thirst for vengeance. Structurally a melodrama, Walker’s sparkling dialogue turn this into what’s been called a dark comedy of immoral ideas.
Pippin
Pippin
BY STEPHEN SCHWARTZ AND ROGER O HIRSON
DIRECTED BY SHANNON BROEKHOVEN
In this musical, heir to the Frankish throne, the young prince Pippin, is in search of the secret to true happiness and fulfillment. He seeks it in the glories of the battlefield, the temptations of the flesh and the intrigues of political power. Throughout the play, Pippin is guided and manipulated by a group of players lead by the Leading Player, who may or may not have his best interests at heart. After it’s revealed that the players intend for Pippin to set himself on fire in “one perfect act”, Pippin rejects the glory-seeking and finds that happiness lies not in extraordinary endeavors, but rather in the unextraordinary moments that happen every day.
