Cakewalk – June 26 to August 10, 2019

Cakewalk by Colleen Curran

In celebration of our 45th anniversary, we are bringing back one of the sweetest, most requested revivals in our decorated history. Cakewalk by Colleen Curran is a delicious comedy that premiered at the Blyth Festival in 1984 and went on to international acclaim.

In celebration of Canada Day, a small town decides to hold a cake baking competition and everyone from the community is lining up for the chance to win a dream vacation and county-wide bragging rights.

It’s enough to bring a local nun out of her habit, send a mother-of-the-bride running with five layers (topper and all), and to unleash the winner-take-all cut-throat tactics of the town’s normally dependable Cub Scout troop leader. The oven mitts are off.

Someone’s going home with the trophy, and someone is getting butter-creamed.

This show will be the icing on our 45th anniversary cake.
