๐€๐”๐ƒ๐ˆ๐“๐ˆ๐Ž๐๐’!

We are currently auditioning for the world premiere of โ€˜๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐——๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฒโ€™, an original musical by Rick Worrall, that will open in the fall of 2026 in the central Okanagan region. See details belowโ€ฆ

Production Title: The Dinner Theatre
Book & Music By: Rick Worrall
Directed By: Angela Quinn
Music Director: Neville Bowman
Performance Dates: early November 2026 (exact dates coming soon!)
Rehearsals: Based on cast availability
In-Person Auditions: June 16, 2026 in Kelowna (by appt. only)
This is a non-equity production with payment by honorarium

๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐——๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฒ is a heartfelt and sharply funny two-person musical set over the course of a single summer evening in a worn Moncton dinner theatre dressing room. Once-celebrated Broadway legends Liam Mitchell and Sarah Rogers havenโ€™t shared a stageโ€”or spoken honestly to each otherโ€”in years. But when an injury forces Sarah to step in opposite Liam at the last minute in Fiddler on the Roof, old wounds, unfinished love, and decades of resentment resurface backstage between curtain calls.

As the night unfolds through biting banter, emotional confessions, and soaring musical numbers, the pair relive the rise and collapse of their relationship while rediscovering the chemistry that once made them unforgettable. Guidedโ€”and occasionally manipulatedโ€”by an overworked young stage manager determined to save both the show and perhaps their hearts, Liam and Sarah must decide whether their story truly ended long agoโ€ฆ or if one final act still remains.

She carries a history of betrayal with Liam but retains a quiet strength. She returns to the stage not for glory, but to
reclaim her voiceโ€”and on her terms.

The Creative House is beyond excited to officially announce the world premiere of โ€˜๐—ง๐—›๐—˜ ๐——๐—œ๐—ก๐—ก๐—˜๐—ฅ ๐—ง๐—›๐—˜๐—”๐—ง๐—ฅ๐—˜โ€™, an original Canadian musical written by local artist, Rick Worrall.

๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐—ด๐—น๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ: In the cramped backstage dressing room of a struggling dinner theatre, two aging Broadway stars are unexpectedly reunited for one last performance, forcing them to confront decades of heartbreak, ego, missed chances, and the lingering question of whether love deserves a final encore.

After already producing 2 musicals this season about guys who have written musicals we only find it fitting to present an original musical written by one of our own. Coming this fall to the Okanagan, you wonโ€™t want to miss this beautiful new show! Featuring local talent and live music.
