Peninsula Productions is excited to present VENTNADO!

Saturday, Feb. 21, 7 PM

A whirlwind one-woman ventriloquist/comedy show starring Norma McKnight.

Martin Short says “Best Ventriloquist I’ve seen”.

VENTNADO spins outstanding ventriloquist technique with cheeky hilarity, fun music, improvisation & audience participation.           

For a gal who doesn’t move her lips…Norma sure has a lot to say! 

You may have seen Norma on The Comedy Network, Coke Zero Sugar Commercial or Canada’s got Talent! At the beginning of her extensive career, Norma felt privileged to be a writer & puppeteer on the late Shari Lewis’ Emmy Award winning TV show Lamb Chop’s Play-Along. She went on to perform internationally on Cruise Ships, at Comedy Clubs, Casinos, Fairs etc!

Crimson Crescendo presents…

“EARTH” candlelit concert series

 

Sunday, March 1

2 PM show

7 PM show

The Crimson Crescendo Trio are renowned for their creativity, extraordinary musicianship, and compelling storytelling. The music for each concert  is originally hand crafted and specially arranged by the Trio – you won’t hear our music performed anywhere else or by anyone else!
What to expect : The Elements Series features a total of four concerts all staged with the lights way down low and a  beautiful glowing candlelit setting at the Peninsula Studio Theatre, North Bluff Road White Rock (next to the Centennial Arena). Our program for this and all concerts in the series is a rich collection of evocative music themed around The Elements.
EARTH – think of music relating to rolling hills, landscapes, things that grow, the solar system  (…you get the picture!). As always, there are some musical surprises in store! The theatre has good level access and ample parking and is suitable for all ages.
The Trio welcomes you to share a unique musical experience at 2 pm and 7:00 pm. 
NOTE: The performances typically last just over an hour without a break. 
 

Love, Loss, and What I Wore

 
This staged reading is a play written by Nora and Delia Ephron and based on the 1995 book of the same name by Ilene Beckerman. 
 
It’s a funny, relatable, and poignant collection of monologues about women’s lives, using clothing as a powerful lens to explore memories, relationships, milestones, and identity, creating a strong sense of sisterhood and universal experience for women and men. It’s a celebration of life’s big and small moments, from disastrous first dates to significant life changes, all tied together by the clothes we wear. It is organized as a series of monologues and uses a rotating cast of five principal women. The subject matter of the monologues includes women’s relationships and wardrobes and at times the interaction of the two, using the female wardrobe as a time capsule of a woman’s life.
 
Thursday, March 5 at 7 PM
Friday, March 6 at 7 PM
