Henry Bingham, executive director of the Quail Valley Country Club, is in a bind. Not only is his newly hired hand, Justin, in love with the club's waitress, Louise, but the golfer he thought would play for his club in a high stakes tournament has defected to his nemesis, Dickie Bell. Fortunately, Justin happens to be a very good golfer and takes the lead, but becomes unglued when he discovers Louise has lost the engagement ring he gave her. Complicating matters are Henry's wife, Muriel, who finds him a little too close to his lascivious vice-president, Pamela – who just happens to be Dickie's ex-wife. A tribute to the great English farces of the '30s and '40s, A Fox On the Fairway is madcap adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with...golf.

The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with the Rodgers and Hammerstein hallmarks of originality, charm, and elegance. Originally presented on CBS Television in 1957 starring Dame Julie Andrews, Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella was the most widely viewed program in the history of the medium. Its recreation in 1965 starring Lesley Ann Warren was also a great success. The second remake in 1997, which starred Brandy as Cinderella and Whitney Houston as her Fairy Godmother, led a whole new generation into the magical, enchanted world. Adapted for the stage from the 1997 teleplay, Cinderella – Enchanted Edition features all the songs from the TV movie, including "The Prince is Giving a Ball," "In My Own Little Corner," "It’s Possible," and more. With great warmth and more than a touch of hilarity, this romantic fairy tale still warms the hearts of children and adults alike.

The enigmatic candy manufacturer, Willy Wonka, stages a contest by hiding golden tickets in five of his scrumptious candy bars. Whomever comes up with these tickets will win a free tour of the Wonka factory, as well as a lifetime supply of candy. Four of the five winning children are ill-behaved, but the fifth is a likeable young lad named Charlie Bucket, who takes the tour with his equally amiable grandfather. The children must learn to follow Mr. Wonka's rules in the factory – or suffer the consequences. Featuring the enchanting songs from the 1971 film and a host of fun new songs, this scrumdidilyumptious musical is a captivating adaptation of Roald Dahl’s fantastical tale, guaranteed to delight everyone's sweet tooth.

There's no such thing as a secret in Stewiacke, Nova Scotia. Not when the gossips meet for coffee every day at the local diner. Vi, Rita, Mary Ellen, and Janine are all as close as can be, and they know everybody's business. But when Sean, a heartbroken doctor, moves in to take a temporary job at the clinic, he tips the Maritime town that's famous for being halfway between the North Pole and the equator off its axis. This feel-good comedy from Canada's most popular playwright will surround you in a familiar warm hug that shares the relief of finding your people.

Get ready for the 2025 edition of the SVTC’s annual fundraiser, Sixth and Broadway. This year we celebrate the '60s with songs from Broadway shows that either debuted in the '60s or feature life in the '60s. With live musicians and a powerhouse cast, we will lift your spirits and get your toes tapping. Packed with hits from legendary shows from Hair to Hairspray, from Little Shop of Horrors to Jersey Boys, there will be something for everyone. Whether you're a longtime Broadway lover or discovering these classics for the first time, you'll be swept away by the magic, the memories, and the music. It's a night of fun you won't want to miss!
