NFLT Celebrates Where We Live

Nov 08, 2017

You might remember about 25 Years ago, in the early days of the North Frontenac Little Theatre, a production called “Fontenoma” was presented at the high school to much acclaim. It was a motley collection of locally written skits and songs. Those attending that show might remember Zeke from Zealand, The Ladies’ Committee, The Gift Shoppe and more.

Now in 2017, to help celebrate Canada 150 some of these songs and skits, updated for the times, will be reprised in this fall’s production, renamed Sunshine Sketches of Our Little Towns. Aspects of life in Frontenac County; the histories of logging and the railway, cottaging, snowmobiling, local foods, duck hunting season and more are celebrated.

Central to the show is a short play The Wedding, written 26 years ago by Debbie Ibey and Carol Hillier. Set on the opening day of duck hunting season…….. well, you can probably imagine the rest!

Those attending the show at GREC on November 23rd, 24th, 25th, and 26th will recognise a number of the area’s regular actors as well as some new but very familiar faces. Tickets will be available from the Sharbot Lake Pharmacy, the Tip Top Dollar shop, from your local NFLT participants or call 279-2777.
Come sing and laugh along with us- in Frontenac.
