“A Comedy of Tenors” production extended due to community demand

PRINCE GEORGE – Miracle Theatre’s production of “A Comedy of Tenors” has received such strong community support that the production has been extended to run until April 7, rather than end on April 3 as originally planned. With the Theatre’s mission being to donate all proceeds back to the community, both the Theatre and actors involved are extremely thankful for all the support so far.

“I don’t know of any other theatre in North America that gives 100% of the proceeds — other than covering costs, obviously —to any given charity or any given cause, it’s one of the reasons I came out to do the show. I think it’s brilliant and I wish more theatres would jump on that giving bandwagon that Ted and Anne (Production Director and Designer Ted Price and Producer Anne Laughlin) have done so beautifully up here,” said David Rosser, an actor in the show.

The Theatre has brought in actors from all across the country, such as Rosser who is from Toronto, but in some cases it will even go over the ocean, as Maggie Trepanier traveled from London, England, to perform in A Comedy of Tenors! While she works out of London, she is from Prince George, and she says the long trip back home was definitely worth it.

“I always love having an opportunity to come back to the community. And then what Ted and Anne do is really amazing and admirable, so I kind of jumped at the chance to come back and work on a show with them and do such a fun production with actors from all over Canada,” she said.

Miracle Theatre hopes to raise $180 000 for a wildfire structure protection unit, which is a trailer carrying hoses, sprinklers, and pumps capable of protecting up to 75 homes wherever it is deployed. Through ticket sales, sponsorships, and donations, Miracle Theatre currently sits just shy of $120 thousand dollars raised, as of March 31.

“As we all know, the wildfire issues are super close to home now, and so it makes you feel good to be able to do a small part in contributing to that cause. It’s easy to feel really helpless in that, so it’s nice to be able to do some fun art to help,” Trepanier said.

“I have friends in Kelowna and other parts of B.C. where waking up to smoke was a daily occurrence for months. And the alerts have already gone up, this season has been such a dry winter. Any chance of saving, one home, two homes, 100 homes, or just taking that worry away? It’s a great cause,” Rosser said.

Tickets are going for just $37.50, and you can buy them in person at Books and Company, or phone Books and Company and pick it up before the show. The ticket gets you not only a fun evening with great entertainment, but also goes straight into helping keep our community safe against wildfires.
