May 4, 2020 ... After many weeks of deliberation, it is with great sadness that we announce the postponement of our 2020 season to 2021. The health and safety of our audiences and artists is our top priority. Due to the ongoing government restrictions and concerns around public gatherings due to COVID-19, we simply cannot proceed with a season that could put so many people at risk.

​

After a record-breaking 2019, we planned our biggest season yet for 2020. We cannot understate how devastating it is to put it on hold. But “on hold” is a key phrase. We have rescheduled all four shows from the season – Outside Mullingar; He’d Be Your Mother’s Father’s Cousin; Lauchie, Liza and Rory; and Where You Are – to June 24-October 3, 2021. The detailed schedule will be released in the new year and single tickets will go on sale at that time. Season Passes for the season are on sale now.

​

If public health conditions permit theatrical performances later in the year, we will jump at the opportunity to present something. You should also stay tuned for announcements in the coming weeks on how we plan to stay connected with you, safely, during these unprecedented times. Click here to join our email list. Limitations breed creativity and invention and we are excited to share what we are planning!

​

As you can imagine, a year without ticket sales will be a difficult one for our organization. We know that these are financially difficult times for many of you as well, but if you are wondering how you can help, consider purchasing a 2021 Season Pass now or making a charitable donation to our organization. Generosity of any size will help sustain our organization through these difficult times.

​

Through all the uncertainty, we want you to know that we are ultimately proceeding with optimism for the future. We know that art will provide profound catharsis when we are permitted to gather in groups once again. And we are fuelled every day by what a gift it will be to safely assemble artists and audience at 24 Queen Street, Baddeck for live, professional theatre.

​

Until then, stay safe, wash your hands, and we will be in touch! 

​

Warm regards,
Christy MacRae-Ziss and Hannah Ziss
Co-Artistic Producers, Theatre Baddeck
