Witness for the Prosecution
Dates: Wednesday, November 6 to Saturday, November 9th at 8 PM and Sunday, November 10 at 2 PM
Leonard Vole stands accused of murdering a rich widow. The stakes are high with shocking witness testimony, impassioned outbursts from the dock and a young man's fight to escape the hangman's noose. Generally regarded as one of Christie's most accomplished plays, this suspenseful thriller keeps audiences guessing until the very end.

Huff
With Cliff Cardinal
Date: Wednesday, November 6th at 8 PM
Huff (Solo) is the wrenching, yet darkly comic tale of Wind and his brothers, caught in a torrent of solvent abuse and at high risk of suicide. Ancestral history combines with harsh reality and gas-induced hallucination in a tale of family, love, despair, and the possibility of redemption.

The Young Novelists
Date: Friday, November 8th at 8 PM

Bruce McCulloch: Tales of Bravery & Stupidity
Date: Friday, November 15th at 8 PM
Former Kids in the Hall member Bruce McCulloch’s Tales of Bravery and Stupidity is a one-man show that is funny and at times touching.
