ELECTRONIC DEVICES No doubt we have all been distracted by a cell phone, pager or watch alarm ringing or lighting up when attending the theatre. For every performance which is unmarred by one of these distractions, we will donate $5 to the Actors’ Fund of Canada. ALLERGY ALERT For the safety of those with allergies, please refrain from the use of perfumes or scented products before coming to the theatre. H E A R I N G A D VA N C E M E N T H E A D S E T S We offer headsets to patrons with hearing difficulties. Ask the usher at the door of the theatre. These are provided free of charge. You will be asked to leave your driver’s license as a deposit until the headset is returned at the end of the performance.
T H E A T R E
AVAILABLE IN THE SHOCTOR AND MACLAB THEATRES.
L AT E S E AT I N G We endeavor to minimize the distraction for our patrons and the actors when seating latecomers. If you arrive late for a performance, you will be seated at the first appropriate moment in the play in designated latecomer seating. You are welcome to move to your assigned seat at intermission. If you must leave the theatre during a performance you will not be allowed to return to your seat until intermission.
The stage is set For brilliance. It starts with an idea, then you add characters, and with the flick of the lights – it’s show time. EPCOR is proud to be part of the 2010 Citadel season because we’re passionate about people, and the power of imagination.

APRIL 23 - MAY 15, 2011 Edmonton’s internationally notorious playwright, Brad Fraser, is back with an audacious and outrageous new comedy of bad manners. With the crackle of lightning fast one-liners, acidic exchanges and wickedly witty characters, Brad’s hilarious new play shatters our illusions about the “perfect” Canadian family.

It began with one small step.
