The Longest Continually-Running Theatre Group in BC
Terrace Little Theatre Society would like to acknowledge that we are thankful to be allowed to learn, work and play on the unceded territory of the Tsimsian nation, including the Kitsumkalum and Kitselas first nations, which they have stewarded since time immemorial.
"The Plot" is the Terrace Little Theatre's Fall Theatre Offering!
After holding auditions, the production of Will Eno's "The Plot" will be hitting the stage for a three weekend run, Fridays and Saturdays, starting November 28th, 29th, and December 5th, 6th, and 12th, 13th. Ticket are $25 and are available at Misty River Books or at the door. The play is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
"The Plot" is a play by Will Eno set in a cemetery, where a couple's purchased grave plots are threatened by a real estate developer. The synopsis involves the conflict between the couple, led by an elderly man preparing for death, and the developer who wants to build over the land, creating a battle between life, death, nature, and industry. The play is noted for its witty dialogue and exploration of themes like mortality, memory, and the encroachment of commercialism.
Please join us for our Annual General Meeting on Sunday, November 2nd at 1 pm at the McColl Playhouse, 3625 Kalum street.

Our Amazing Amy Turner
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of a very much-loved and long-time TLT member, Amy Turner. Those who have had the privilege and honour of working with her will never forget her incredible energy and commitment to everything theatre related, not to mention her kindness and compassion. A true-blue Blue Jays fan, Amy was always ready to cheer them on regardless of their division standings. Amy's interests were many and diverse. There was virtually no part of the theatre world that Amy had not touched with her fire and enthusiasm. After surviving a long and frustrating leukemia treatment, Amy was able to come back to us for one last production, portraying Nurse Ratched in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest". Sadly, shortly after the production wrapped up, she was once again diagnosed with leukemia, leading her into another round of cancer treatment, one that would ultimately see her benched. Mere words cannot convey how much of an impact Amy had on our theatre world, let alone how much she enriched the lives of those around her. She will be greatly missed. There will be a celebration of life service to be held October, 18th at 2:00pm at the McColl Playhouse.

Upcoming Playreadings for our 2025 - 2026 Season
Updated: Through the month of August and into September, the Terrace Little Theatre has conducted several well-received playreadings. Most playreadings are designed to be ways for potential directors to hear what their play of choice might sound like. After our current series of playreadings, a proposal to produce the Will Eno play, "Middletown", was put forth by Robin MacLeod. Unable to attract sufficient actors to fill the roles, it was a fairly large cast, Robin quickly submitted a proposal for another play, another script by Will Eno, "The Plot". She was able to cast the production as it required fewer actors. This production is currently in rehearsal.
