Now they''re back with another  one of their signature takes on a classic tale, filled with lots of excitement, adventure, and zany hi-jinks. The best part? It''s all family-friendly, made up right on the  spot, starring members of the audience! 

Best age range: Young and young-at-heart!

This Tartan Day Concert features the music of 'North Atlantic Drift'.  In the comfort of the Fergus Grand Theatre you will be captured by a multi-instrumental, multi-styled celtic sound that is truly Canadian in its diversity.  Musicians Brian Tahenny (Sligo, Ireland), Dan MacDonald (Cape Breton Island) and Ross Griffiths (Ontario) follow the centuries old tradition of trading music and musical styles between Ireland, Scotland and the East coast of Canada.

Dancers from the Joyner Highland Dance School will delight you with their high energy footwork.

The pipes and drums of the Fergus Pipe Band will provide a set of tunes.

Tartan Day originated in Canada in the 1980s as a celebration of Scottish heritage and the contributions made by those from the Scottish diaspora.

On Saturday April 27th, CWCDC presents Peter Pan, a “non-Disney-fied” version of J.M. Barrie’s classic tale, written and directed by Katy Chapman. Productions will hit the stage at 2pm and 7pm each day.

“The kids have been having a blast working on their comedic timing, while getting into their characters during rehearsals. They can’t wait to bring this production to life”, stated Gerard Gouthro, director of In The Bleachers. Katy Chapman, director of Peter Pan added “our talented group of young actors has been exploring contact improv, shadow work and stage combat while preparing to make their characters and the audience’s imaginations come to life”.

Since September, both groups of local young actors have been working on acting techniques, getting to know their plays, their roles, learning their lines and getting into character.

The Centre Wellington Children’s Drama Club began in the mid 1970s and is made up of 45 local kids in Grades 4-8 with a passion for acting.  They come together to learn, develop, and enhance their unique artistic abilities through creative dramatic expression, becoming talented and confident young people. The kids work with their Director for half of the year learning and developing technique, and for the other half of the year practicing their play. The club supports and encourages members in a positive and ‘play’-ful approach.
