WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?

Well, it has to be said.  We have had to cancel “Wonderful World” due to the loss of our venue and rehearsal space. The Tsawwassen Arts Centre  is not fully operational as an arts centre/performance venue due to financial difficulties, and we don’t know if or when that will change. It’s a pretty serious blow and we [...]

Auditions were amazing!

Many, many thanks to the fabulous group of actors and the eager volunteers who came to auditions at the Tsawwassen Arts Centre on October 4 and 5.  We are thrilled with the talent, enthusiasm and level of commitment  we encountered. It is clear that South Delta has an abundance of talent and the will to make [...]

Mainstage, here we come!

The two performances in Tsawwassen on June 26 and 27 were great!  Here is what one patron had to say after seeing the Saturday show:

A friend & I were privileged to be in the audience at the Tsawwassen Arts Centre last Sat. to experience your memorable production of “Eleemosynary”. It was outstanding. I am telling everyone [...]
