Kaput
Saturday, April 11, 2015 at 11 AM and 2 PM
Kaput is a hilariously funny mix of chaos, comedy and acrobatics for all ages. A young
silent movie projectionist is eager to show a film to the audience but his efforts are
thwarted by a glitch in his temperamental projector. This award-winning production is a
tribute to the slapstick comedy of the silent movie era, created and performed by
renowned Australian circus performer Tom Flanagan.

Dunfield Theatre Cambridge
Journey to the shores of Prince Edward Island and follow the misadventures of Anne Shirley, a freckle-faced, red-haired orphan who will immediately capture your heart with her irrepressible spirit and imagination.
Anne arrives at Green Gables full of hope for a new life, but is dismayed to discover the elderly Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert had expressly asked for a boy. Despite her fiery temper, love of melodrama and proclivity for mischief, Anne manages to charm her way into their hearts … and meet some kindred spirits along the way.
Brimming with memorable music and magical moments, Anne of Green Gables is deservedly the most popular musical in Canadian theatre history. Join us for this family classic.
