MURDER FOR TWO JULY 2-21, 2019 Starring Alex Baerg & Mark Payne Book and music by JOE KINOSIAN Book and lyrics by KELLEN BLAIR Everyone is a suspect in this hilarious musical murder mystery with a twist: One actor investigates the crime. The other plays all of the suspects - and both while playing the piano! One fateful night a famous novelist is killed...fatally. With a real detective nowhere to be found, a small town officer has the chance to prove his sleuthing skills. Multitalented VPP favourites Mark Payne and Alex Baerg are sure to put the laughter in manslaughter. THE NEW CANADIAN CURLING CLUB AUGUST 6-25, 2019 Written by Mark Crawford From Mark Crawford, the playwright who brought us the smash hit The Birds and the Bees, comes a new comedy set in a small town in rural Southwestern Ontario with an ice rink, a refugee resettlement, and a Learn to Curl class. Trouble is, the reluctant coach has some strong opinions about immigrants. What follows is a hilarious and inspiring story of a group of unlikely would-be athletes who face off against local prejudice to become a true team. HOGAN S HOEDOWN SEPTEMBER 3-22, 2019 Created by Everyone in the Barn! Music Arrangements by Mark Payne Get ready to swing your partner, kick up your heels & boogie in your boots cause David Hogan is hosting a Hoedown. By overwhelming supply and demand, David takes the stage for the first time at the VPP. You ll laugh your overalls off and stomp your two left feet as you witness the most electrifying hootenanny this side of Watford. Featuring classics like Cow Patti and May the Bird of Paradise Fly Up Your Nose...at least he think they re classics. DRACULA OCTOBER 15-27, 2019 Book and lyrics by Richard Ouzounian Music by Marek Norman Starring David Rogers When Dracula: A Chamber Musical premiered at the Stratford Festival, the response was tremendous. It has since played world-wide, including a highly successful concert version starring David Rogers (cast by the composer). With Rogers again in the iconic role, along with a company of stellar voices and musicians, we are thrilled to present this phenomenal concert to you. So Let the Night Begin and experience this classic story like never before.
