Wait Until Dark - A Review
If you are wondering what to do tonight, why not come down to CentreStage's production of Wait Until Dark!!! Well, don't wait until dark, you will miss it, door opens at 7:15!
Here's what audience members are saying:
Wait until Dark was awesome, if you get the chance to see it, do so, it's a must!
It will take your mind off your problems. I'm glad those characters stay on stage!
Great night watching, Wait Until Dark, at Centre Stage, in Kentville! Go if you can!
The actors had me right from the start.
The last scene was so intense, on the edge of my seat.
The actress who played Suzy was so believable. Was she really blind?
Wonderful performance by the young lady who played Gloria.
Aided by her difficult 10-year old neighbour, Gloria, housewife, Susy Hendrix, is learning to cope with recent blindness. She is terrorized in her own apartment by a group of criminals who believe she is hiding something that they want. This intense show features scenes of darkness and near darkness requiring the lighting of some matches, and is best suited to adults and teens.
Wait Until Dark, stage managed by Nancy Henry, is directed by Peter Booth and George Henry, and is produced by Linda Levy Fisk. It features Sharon Churchill Roe, Stephen Abbass, Mike Butler, Alex Trimper, Paul Abela, Aria MacDonald, Annelise Smith, Kaia Goss, Ryan Trimper, and Ryan MacNab.
Wait Until Dark plays on May 17, 18, 19 (matinée), 24, 25

Renovation Update
The upgrade of the east façade of CentreStage is proceeding well. Spray foam insulation has been applied and siding is being put in place. Two of the three types of siding being used are on back order, and this has delayed the completion of the project, but we are hopeful that work can recommence by mid-May. We thank all members of the CentreStage community for their patience during this construction.
