Elm City Quartet: Quartet by Candlelight 🕯

December 22, 2022 @ 7:30 am 9:00 pm

Established in 2019, the Elm City String Quartet was brought together by their passion for chamber music and a desire to share their love of quartet repertoire with their home town of Fredericton. Their first performance was a memorable evening in a small art gallery that was so packed, there were children sitting on the floor between their music stands. Since then, the quartet has been captivating New Brunswick communities with their broad programming and charismatic playing.

Actors from Robin Hood dressed as Maid Marion, Robin Hood, and the Sherif of Nottgham

Robin Hood: Dufflebag Theatre 🏹

December 27, 2022 @ 2:00 pm 3:00 pm

The audience is the star of the show in DuffleBag Theatre’s hilarious twist on the classic tale of Robin Hood and his merry band!

Actors from Robin Hood dressed as Maid Marion, Robin Hood, and Prince John.


While the King is away the people of England suffer under the oppressive rule of his tax-happy brother, Prince John. Only a straight arrow like Robin Hood, the best archer in the land, can save England! By stealing from the rich and giving back to the poor, Robin keeps the spirit of justice alive, with the help of a few friends along the way, including Maid Marian, Friar Tuck, and Little John. But what if the Prince and the dreaded Sheriff of Nottingham lay a trap for our hero? With all the humour and fun you’ve come to expect, DuffleBag hits the mark with this on-target tale of derring-do!

The Little Prince. TNB Theatre School

The Little Prince 🌕

April 18, 2023 @ 7:30 pm 9:30 pm

By Rick Cummins and John Scoullar from the book by Antoine de Saint Exupéry.
Featuring the students of TNB Theatre School’s Senior Acting program.

The Little Prince. TNB Theatre School

This play tells the story of a world-weary and disenchanted Aviator whose sputtering plane strands him in the Sahara Desert and a mysterious, regal “little man” who appears and asks him to “Please, sir, draw me a sheep.” During their two weeks together in the desert, the Little Prince tells the Aviator about his adventures through the galaxy, how he met the Lamplighter and the Businessman and the Geographer, and about his strained relationship with a very special flower on his own tiny planet. At length, both the “little man” and the Aviator must go home—each with a new understanding of how to laugh, cry, and love again.
