It is fall in a small town in BC, where every year, a Chili Cook-Off is held at the municipal fair.  Ava is determined to win after 16 years of trying.  The event is named after her father – “The Chili King”.  Her rival is a former childhood friend.  Her enthusiastic, and wildly optimistic assistant has no culinary expertise, except cleaning out the zoo cages. What could go wrong?  This hilarious send up by a new Canadian playwright is a great start to Metro’s season!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY by Beverly Cross

New Dates: January 28 – February 20, 2021

* show run Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

A case of mistaken identity over the course of a weekend in the French countryside creates havoc for our couples.  Two very different women – one a cook; the second a Parisian model – have the same name.  This creates frantic complication of identities, plots, counter-lots, and bedrooms  (that are changed with alarming frequency).

MURDER by MISADVENTURE by Edward Taylor

March 12 – March 27, 2021 with Matinees Mar 14 & 21

New Dates: March 4 – March 27, 2021

* show run Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

Two TV mystery writers, one a bit of a drunk, the other a bit disenchanted and eager to move to greener pastures (mainly in Hollywood).  What can keep them together?  Old lingering camaraderie?  Nostalgia?  Or perhaps the threat of blackmail?  Can that keep a partner in his place – maybe!  Add a “Yard” Inspector who has all kinds of questions that just keep coming…..and coming….Who is up to what?  This one will keep you guessing until the final blackout!

STAG and DOE by Marc Crawford

April 16 – May 1, 2021 with Matinees Apr 18 & 25

New Dates: April 8 – April 24, 2021

* show run Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

From the writer of “Bed and Breakfast” comes a hilarious farce of one couple’s wedding day,  and one couple’s wedding fund raiser with one huge problem.  A mighty wind has scuppered the outdoor wedding sending the marquee, the port-o-potties and the chairs into the next county.  Can the  two couples share the community hall space without risking mayhem, destruction, and some hair-pulling? (spoiler alert – NO to the last!)

THE ODD COUPLE by Neil Simon

October 29 – November 14, 2020 with Matinees Nov 1 & 8

New Dates: May 6 – May 29, 2021

* show run Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday

Neil Simon’s classic and arguably best play.  A comedy about two widely different men who decide to try rooming together. One is a slob.  One is a neat freak.  Who will drive whom crazy first?  The action is interspersed with the antics of their four Friday Night poker-playing buddies.  And then by a dinner date with the  ‘”Coo-Coo Pigeon Sisters” from England.  ‘Hands Across The Sea’ was never like this!

Our Annual Traditional Christmas Pantomime has been cancelled due to COVID-19. In its stead we are pleased to present

The Charles Dickens holiday classic comes to life as a live 1940s radio broadcast. The magic of live sound effects and musical underscoring sees a handful of actors bring dozens of characters to the stage. As the familiar story unfolds: Three ghosts take Ebenezer Scrooge on a thrilling journey to teach him the true meaning of Christmas. A charming take on a family favorite that will leave no one saying “Bah Humbug!”
