Norm Foster Finds a Home @ St. Jacobs Country Playhouse with Drayton Entertainment’s Production of Jonas and Barry in the Home

Many of our readers are familiar with the work of famous Canadian Playwright Norm Foster. We have been to several of the Drayton Entertainment plays written by him including last year’s productions of THE MEN’S FOURSOME, THE LADIES FOURSOME, and one of our favourites LOOKING.

This week we were invited to attend to attend Drayton Entertainment’s production of Jonas and Barry in that Home that was not only written by Norm Foster but also starred Norm Foster in the role of Jonas.

 

The show is set on the outdoor patio of a seniors’ retirement residence and while it mentions the others living in the establishment it is acted through 3 characters, Barry, his daughter Rosemary who works there, and new resident Jonas. Thorough these 3 people we see their views points on love and marriage, divorce and new relationships, sickness and health, life and death and how everyone deals with thoughts of aging. Together this trio inspire each other to make the most of their current situations while encouraging each other to learn from their past mistakes.  Through their stories you may laugh, and maybe shed a tear as you relate to each of these situations.

Jonas and Barry are as different as night and day. When the two men both move into Gateway Gardens assisted living home, they unwittingly become fast friends and look for ways to liven up the joint, while teaching each other some important life lessons along the way.

It's Time To Shimmy Shake To Drayton Entertainment's CHICAGO

Welcome To The Roaring Twenties

Chicago, it's my kind of town and Drayton Entertainment's CHICAGO takes you back to the time where going viral began.  While today it's about being mentioned on all the media channels, back then it was all about getting your name in the paper at any cost.  Much like the criminal trials of today, back in that era a high profile trial could launch you into celebrity status.  That is the theme around Chicago, grabbing the media attention and keeping it.  Making sure that no matter what "the next big story" is, whether it be a vaudville act or a crime, it is still all about you.

PARENTS' NIGHT OUT
Slick your hair, and wear you buckle shoes to what is sure to be a fantastic evening out! Chicago is full of memorable music, flirty fashion and sassy shimmy shaking. 

This musical recalls a time when it was all about gin and jazz!  The songs make a statement whether belted out by "mama" or the way Amos subtly sings "Mr. Cellophane" that play a big role in this performance.

The costume clad cast is shows off just how flexable leather and lace can be with their bold routines created to keep you attention.

Meet merry murderess number 5 – Velma Kelly. Only 5.5 hours until CHICAGO opens with a BANG at the St. Jacobs Country...
