Escape from Happiness
Escape from Happiness

Directed by: Bryn Rowlands

An offbeat Canadian comedy where family dysfunction meets razor-sharp wit. When the head of the family is attacked, chaos erupts in the kitchen of a small, crumbling home. George F. Walker’s dark comedy is a fast, funny, and raw look at love, loyalty, and the messy ways families try to protect each other.

Escape from Happiness performs at Stairs Memorial United Church, March 13 - 28, 2026.

 

Sinners

In a conservative small town, a well-respected woman finds herself at the centre of a moral scandal. Norm Foster’s Sinners is sharp, heartfelt, and surprisingly funny — a story about judgement, truth, and the people behind the gossip.

Sinners performs June 12 - 27 at the Stairs Memorial United Church in Dartmouth.
