Mainstage #2

Ferry Tales August 7 – 30, 2009

What do you do when the tide goes out and the water is 50 feet lower than it was that morning? When a whale is beached at the ferry dock? When a baby is born on deck? When winter prohibits ferry service, yet love remains ardent enough to compel a young man to cross the bay by pole vaulting from ice pan to ice pan? Embrace the adventure and come aboard!

The delightful musical, Ferry Tales, book and lyrics by Carol Sinclair, composition and additional lyrics by david sereda, will enchant audiences with the lore of the beloved Kipawo, the last of the Minas Basin ferries. View photos of the Opening Night Gala
