Best Entertainment

Every town should have a great community theatre, and in Waterdown we have the Village Theatre.   It's a great little gem in the heart of the Waterdown Core, right on Dundas Street between Main and Mill... couldn't get more central than that!

They just finished up "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and currently getting ready for their next play "The Mousetrap".

A little about the Villiage Theatre from their website... 
Operating out of the Memorial Hall in the centre of Waterdown, Ontario, Canada for over thirty years, Village Theatre is a community theatre group which produces challenging and entertaining drama, comedy, sometimes even some music! We provide a creative outlet for close to 100 local actors, directors, designers and backstage crew. Many others join simply for the fun and friendship of getting a show on stage.We're proud of our reputation as the group which does what others wouldn't dare, with memorable productions by playwrights such as Dario Fo, Michel Tremblay and Anouilh; with plays like Top Girls, Equus and Love For Love. We also produce a full-scale children’s play as part of our regular season, giving many children the opportunity to perform.Recent renovations to Memorial Hall, funded by Village Theatre through various grants, means a classier, more versatile venue that welcomes our audience with style. If you're looking for a social group where you can work hard for no pay, to create magical moments that disappear as soon as they're reached, then you're as crazy as we are - you may as well join us!
"The Mousetrap"
By Agatha Christie
The Mystery that made History

directed by: Andrew Finnigan
produced by: Joyce Bell
stage manager: Theresa Cooke

Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap is the longest running play of our time. Enter a dark manor house where you'll join a murderer and a group of complete strangers, one of whom has set a trap to catch the murderer. Mousetrap is a chilling play with a surprise twist ending which has been sworn to secrecy by the audience members since 1952!
