SHAKESPEARE on the SLOPES opens on MARCH 20

Merchant of Venice and A Midsummer Night's Dream are the two shows in repertory this year at our inaugural festival at the beautiful White Hlls Ski Resort. Come out for a day - or even two - of skiing - Downhill and Cross-Country - and then take in a show in the evening. Or if you wish a break in the mid afternoon come to one of our 2 PM matinnes. Then relax at the Daylodge Lounge at the end of the day. Make a weekend or even a longer holiday as this is Easter Break. Book into one of our many hotels and B&B's. Come and really experience the unique offerings of the Clarenville Area.

Merchant of Venice tells the story of the darker side of the human condition on the Docks of the 1930's. Greed. Power. A pound of flesh or a pound of gold. You choose! Directed by Aiden Flynn of Rabbbittown Theatre. OPENS MARCH 20th.

A Midsummer Night's Dream is the fantasy filled story of lovers who do not always get what they want - or get to much of it - and the hilarity that ensues when a near-do-well fairy gets involved that never gets it right in the "casting of spells department". Directed by Geoff Adams - OPENS MARCH 22nd.

Come out for a day of skiing and an evening at the theatre.
