Goodnight Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet) Presented by SOAP Theatre
2026-04-30 19:30 - 21:00, 2026-04-26 14:00 - 16:00, 2026-04-25 19:30 - 21:00, 2026-04-24 19:30 - 21:00 | Venables Theatre, Oliver, British Columbia, V0H 1T0, Canada
Goodnight Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet) is an exuberant comedy and feminist revisioning of Shakespeare’s Othello and Romeo and Juliet. It takes us from a dusty office in Canada’s Queen’s University, into the fraught and furious worlds of two of Shakespeare’s best-known tragedies, and turns them upside-down.​Constance Ledbelly is the beleaguered “spinster” academic, and unlikely heroine who embarks on a quest for Shakespearean origins and, ultimately, her own identity. When she deciphers an ancient and neglected manuscript, Constance is propelled through a very modern rabbit hole and lands smack in the middle of the tragic turning points of each play in turn. Her attempts to save first Desdemona, then Juliet, from their harrowing fates, result in a wild unpredictable ride through comedy and near-tragedy, as mild-mannered Constance learns to love, sword-fight, dance Renaissance-style, and master a series of disguises… Goodnight Desdemona (Good Morning Juliet) a gender-bendy, big-hearted and crazily intelligent romp, where irony and anger sing in perfect harmony with innocence and poignancy.“Clever, pointed and entertaining… This play is one of the wildest and wooliest feminist reappraisals that the theatre has seen, and one of the most intellectually ambitious.”The Globe and Mail​“Stratford-upon-Acid: that’s where MacDonald’s dizzying Goodnight Desdemona lives… MacDonald traipses through the canon with glee… Lots of clever fun.”The Village Voice

Free admission! Firehall Open Mic & Jam Night is an opportunity for local musicians to perform their art in a public, social setting in the Firehall Brewery brewpub! Open Mic & Jam Nights are an important part of every music scene, to allow new musicians to flourish, and seasoned musicians to hone their trade. Please keep in mind, the “pub” environment may not always provide an attentive audience, but capturing the crowd is all part of the challenge 😉

We recommend performers RSVP so we know you’re coming! Table reservations are no longer available.

FOR MUSICIANS – PLEASE READ

Please arrive around 6:30 and identify yourself to our host, Mike Dallamore, and let him know if you would like accompaniment (Open Mic style vs Jam style). He will find you a slot for you to play up to three songs.

We will have three microphones, and a PA mixer with more than enough inputs for instruments. Small electric amps are permitted, but they must be coordinated with the sound tech. Small percussion instruments are permitted. Bagpipes are stricly prohibited unless you are wearing a kilt… just kidding (though kilts are awesome).

We have no restrictions on genre, though we insist that all performers respect that our space is family-friendly, and we have a strict intolerance for prejudice or abusive material.

FOR PATRONS – PLEASE READ

Please respect the musicians. They have worked hard to get up on the stage 🙂

Tinhorn Creek presents - Abstract Collage with Tamara Grand: Finding the Picture Within

This abstract collage workshop is for beginners, curious people, and anyone who wants two hours of making without the pressure of getting it right.

We’ll use torn and cut paper and mark-making tools to build up a large surface — layering freely, covering things up, and changing our minds as we go. Along the way, we’ll talk about contrast: big and small, dark and light, rough and smooth — the simple things that make a composition feel alive.

The best part? At the end, you’ll use a cropping window to find the painting hiding inside your surface. It’s always in there somewhere.

No scenes to compose, nothing to draw, nothing that has to look like anything. Just colour, shape, and texture.

Details:

What to bring: magazines, catalogues, wrapping paper, tissue paper, paper napkins, wallpaper scraps, maps, sheet music — anything printed or patterned. Everything else is provided.

Artist Bio:

Tamara Grand creates layered abstract paintings using acrylic, wax pastel, and graphite. Her work develops through a process of addition and revision, with bold colour, organic form, and gestural marks accumulating and remaining partially visible. Rather than concealing earlier stages, she allows traces of the past to emerge, recording change over time. Her intuitive approach embraces movement, erasure, and reworking on canvas and birch panel. With a background in science, she views each painting as an experiment, inspired by nature’s shifting light, textures, growth, and decay. Her practice began after the loss of her daughter, holding grief and joy together through evolving, unfinished transformation.
