Improv Night!
100-sided Improv returns! Come join John Mazerolle, Noah Nazim and more at the Beaconsfield Carriagehouse for an improv jam! We’ll roll a 100-sided die and see what improv game comes up, and then play it out. Drop in for a casual, low-pressure improv experience for newbies and veterans alike! This event is open to all.
When: March 21 (Thursday), 7:45 pm to 9 pm.
Where: The Carriagehouse, Beaconsfield Historic House, 2 Kent Street, Charlottetown
You are invited to an opening night reception for a 10-day exhibition of 29 years of ACT’s posters and other memorabilia!
The exhibit is a visual testament of ACT’s contributions to P.E.I.’s arts scene. A showcase of the creativity, vitality, talent and heart of ACT’s many shows, this art installation aims to capture the spirit of community theatre that is the very essence of ACT – an organization dedicated to fostering and encouraging amateur theatre in Prince Edward Island.
The exhibition will be housed in the Hilda Woolnough Gallery at The Guild for 10 days, from March 19th - 28th.
The opening night reception to launch the exhibit will be held at the gallery at The Guild on March 19th from 6 to 8 p.m. This is a fundraiser for ACT to help with payment for storage of props, costumes and set pieces.
Come and enjoy our art exhibit, bid on enticing prizes from local businesses in a silent auction and enjoy a song from our exciting upcoming ACT musical performed by cast members.
ACT Play Reading: The Weir, by Conor McPherson
Described as “beautifully devious”, “gentle, soft-spoken, delicately crafted work,” and “a modern masterpiece”, The Weir follows a group at an Irish pub swapping stories with a supernatural slant. Come read with us as we explore this play at the Charlottetown Library as part of Creative PEI’s Art Night.
When: March 27 (Wednesday), 7-8:15 pm
Where: Maker Space, Charlottetown Library (Dominion Building).
