During #NVW2019 we want to say THANK YOU to the 100 volunteers who volunteer with the Port Stanley Festival Theatre and lift the Port Stanley community! We couldn’t do it without you!

Today is World Theatre Day.

The Goals of World Theatre Day are:

To promote theatre in all its forms across the world.
To make people aware of the value of theatre in all its forms.
To enable theatre communities to promote their work on a broad scale so that governments & opinion leaders are aware of the value & importance of dance in all its forms and support it.
To enjoy theatre in all its forms for its own sake.
To share the joy for theatre with others.

Celebrate Theatre!

We are taking out the old front steps and replacing them with a new entrance. The rejuvenation will take approximately 4-6 weeks to complete. It will be brand new for the season opening. During this time business is open as usual for the Theatre and for Connections. Please use the Library/Box Office door to shop at Connections.

Apropos & Apropos for Men proudly present a Port Stanley Festival Theatre Fundraiser on Saturday June 22, 2019. 9am shotgun start, 12 holes with golf cart, prizes, contests, silent auction, lunch and more! Join us Fore the Arts Co-Ed Golf Tournament. For more information or to register call 519-782-4353 or www.psft.ca

This generous gesture provides what cast call an essential life line. Reducing financial strain, providing the comforts of home, helping one to settle quickly into their role so that their best work can be done. It also opens the door for new friendships to be formed.

To show our gratitude the theatre offers rewards like a tax receipt, season tickets & a gift certificate to a local business.
