Wyatt Heritage Properties' "Signature Fundraiser" takes to the stage
"The Dressing Room", produced by Wyatt Heritage Properties will hit the stage of the Summerside Harbourfront Jubilee Theatre on November 24th.
The two act play is a comedy/drama that takes a revealing peek into an old-timers' hockey team dressing room at Cahill Stadium in its final days. Off limits to anyone other than the players, the dressing room becomes the place where men lay down their guard; open themselves up to intimacy, friendship and the freedom of unconditional acceptance. They attempt to keep what happens in the dressing room behind closed doors. The locally written play has used the life and hockey career of Summerside native Paul MacWilliams as its primary inspiration. 'The Dressing Room" will appeal to a wide spectrum of audiences as they find themselves drawn into the story being revealed onstage.
Marlane O'Brien of Maritime Star fame is directing "The Dressing Room.", which is Wyatt Heritage Properties first foray into live theatre. Bill McFadden, the acclaimed Island actor who has performed on stages across North America will bring to life the leading character of Paul. The Jubilee Players of Vernon Campbell, Thane Clarke, Jon Rehder, and Don Purich will reveal the secrets of the dressing room.
Ratelle and Associates is the presenting sponsor of this distinctive theatrical production that is the 2007 signature fundraiser for Wyatt Heritage Properties. WHP is made up of the Wyatt Historic House, The Lefurgey Cultural Centre, The MacNaught History Centre and Archives, Bishop Machine Shop, and the 1911 Armoury that houses the International Fox Museum and Hall of Fame and Gallery 33. In its seven years of existence Wyatt Heritage Properties has made great strides in its mandate to promote arts, heritage, and culture for the region. HMS Office Supplies Limited, Sobeys, Source for Sports and The Journal Pioneer are the supporting sponsors of this play and fundraising evening.
Lori Ellis, manager of Heritage and Cultural Properties for the City of Summerside stated "I am excited that Wyatt Heritage Properties is able to present a first class local home grown theatrical production, as our signature fundraiser event for 2007. I know this creative piece will take the community by surprise and I look forward to the feedback.
This project reflects the exceptional talent that lies in our community and is only a taste of what's to come as our organization explores new and innovative ways to share our heritage and culture through public presentation"
There will be a pre-reception and silent auction at 7 pm on opening night.
