2024 - 2025 SEASON
We are so excited to announce the final details for our first Annual Fundraising Gala!
We proudly present Eclipsed! by Lisa Patrick-Wilkinson directed by Steph Kast. This audience participation mystery/comedy invites you to become celebrated guests of Lord and Lady Moon at the coveted Annual Moonlight Masquerade Charity Gala. When a diamond Tiffany necklace scheduled to be auctioned off at the event mysteriously disappears, it becomes clear that someone present isn’t quite what or who they appear to be. But things take a decidedly sinister turn as members of the entourage turn up quite indubitably, irrevocably dead. Could one of the remaining blue-bloods be responsible? Could someone in the audience help solve these heinous crimes? Can the crime be solved, or will the entire evening be “Eclipsed”? With this hilarious cast of aristocratic characters, mayhem is the appetizer, madness the main course and murder is served up a la carte.
Hosted at the Davedi Club on Saturday, May 10th, 2025, enjoy a buffet-style dinner and immerse yourself in the masquerade ball and try to figure out whodunnit. There will be a silent auction with items donated by local businesses and supporters of GTG. Funds raised help GTG to continue to provide high quality theatre to our community as well as a chance for people with a passion for theatre to engage in the craft. Email: gtgmarketingcomm@gmail.com to reserve $85 per person $150 per couple. Tables of 10 for $150.

When There's A Will
June 4-8, 2025
Written and Directed by Sundridge's Own John and Marissa Bressan
​
Old friends, it is said, are the family we choose. And so it is that Andrew Adelman, while waiting to board a return flight home, has a chance encounter with his former best friend from college, Kevin Bristol.
In a world where everyone’s version of the truth is wielded about as both a shield and a weapon, old wounds inevitably open, and those involved discover that the scales of justice are often tipped in someone else's favor.
“When There’s a Will” delves into the complexities of relationships and human nature; where one man's instinct to help a friend in need results in unexpected, and perilous consequences - be they by chance or by design.
​

Mary Carriere - Natalie Carr JP Fournier - Carlo, waiter
Erin Creed - Flight Counter Attendant Lizzie Terri - Alessia Bellini
Concetta Famighietti - Sonia Bellini Mary Urie - Mayanne Bristol
