            "Update March 30:

            The Province of Ontario has ordered a closure of non-essential businesses to aid in the fight against the Coronavirus.  As a result, the box office will be closed until the order has been lifted.

            Due to the uncertainty of the pandemic and our concern for our patrons, volunteers, artists and staff the Port Stanley Festival Theatre has decided to postpone the first two shows of our season: “The Crooner Show” and “A Legal Alien”.

            If you have tickets to the above-mentioned performances be assured that we will contact you as soon as the situation allows.

            If you have any questions please email the Theatre Manager, Natasha Newby at External link opens in new tab or windownatasha@psft.ca.  She will do her best to respond in a timely manner.

            We appreciate your patience and support at this time and promise to keep you informed as we continue to make decisions based on the changing conditions and on Public Health recommendations.

            We look forward to seeing you all again when conditions are approved for a safe return to programming.

            JUDY: Stonewalled! 2017

            We invited you to be part of the further development of this exciting script JUDY: Stonewalled!. As we move toward the 50th Anniversary (June 2019) of the Stonewall uprising and the Death of Judy Garland, we wanted to share this unique story with as many people as possible. Thank you for being part of this exciting process.

            The Public readings of this NEWLY expanded script with new music and orchestrations happened at the Arts Project during Pride London 2017. We asked you to show up, watch the performance and share your thoughts with us afterwards, and you did!

             

            ABOUT JUDY: Stonewalled!

            “On June 22, 1969 Judy Garland dies at age 47. In the early morning hours of June 28, a community fights back. These two worlds collide in this NEWLY Expanded fictional theatrical production with music. The play takes place at a tribute show to Judy Garland in a little cabaret bar just down the street from the Stonewall Inn. The action happens as the infamous riots break out... JUDY: Stonewalled! is a glimpse into what it meant to be gay before ‘Stonewall’ and those critical moments where decisions are made that can change, everything!”

             

            CHARACTERS


            EMCEE - Campy and dressed stylistically. He is the biggest Judy Garland fan.

            TIKI - Young, irrepressible, dressed flamboyantly and provocatively in drag. She is the voice that isn’t so downtrodden and self-hating. Very kinetic and always moving and using her hands when talking. She should be self-aware in how she presents herself, with an element of self-mocking quality. There should appear to be more going on with her than what we see.
            STEVE - Straight looking and acting. He is very much in the closet and it’s not directly revealed that he is homosexual, because he is not the kind of person who would admit that, perhaps not even to himself.
            CHRISTOPHER - In his 30s. Thoughtful and intelligent and geeky. He is lonely not just because he’s an awkward gay man, but because he is so serious.
            BRAD - a transgendered man. He is confident but puts on bit of a show of being happy, except for occasional revealing moments.
            JUDY GARLAND - Impersonator, but giving the impression to the audience that she could be truly Judy on stage.


            ...of the original London Fringe script - "Profound and gorgeous and moving" - Jeff Culbert  - The London Yodeller
