Gwelf Early Days at the River Run Centre

 Not bad for the first ever performance of this indoor one man show.

Lilt of Laughter, Trace of Tears. The tour continues.

Wow, it was another successful show!

A two show day at "Silence" the charming intimate venue in Guelph. 10:30am a show for seniors. Members of the Guelph Wellington Seniors Association, Guelph Lake Commons Retirement, and Riverside Glen, came by the bus loads to attend and enjoy. They loved it!

Then at 2pm another crowd gathered including, once again, relatives of the playwright, Charlene Herrold to laugh and cry along. Delightful!

Live theatre

I have always thought of the walking tours as street theatre. Then I created indoor versions of the tours.

I also have added some new shows:

Lilt of Laughter, Trace of Tears

Isn't That The Dickens - for Christmas

and Heads and Tales - something new.

So I thought it was time for this.


Live one-man shows. Now booking.
