What's Happening
Coming Nov 2024
Wishbone Theatre Presents
Limelight takes us back to 1929, in the last days of Vaudeville theatre, an era that spanned over fifty years of popular mass entertainment. The Limelight Theatre is closing its doors and the cast and crew face a grim future as the “silver screen” steals away their audience. A charismatic movie producer pays them a visit on their last night, offering them fame and fortune in this new era of entertainment. Is it too good to be true? Music, dance and physical comedy combine with a story filled with the resiliency of the creative spirit.
Wishbone Theatre is excited to bring Limelight, a 21st century Vaudeville revival, to the Robson Valley this fall.
Stay tuned for more announcements and opportunities to be part of this unique and exciting production.
