Announcing Our 2015-2016 SeasonThe Belleville Theatre Guild welcomes you to our new season! Whether you’re a returning subscriber or a first-time visitor to our stage, you’re sure to enjoy our play selections this year. We open with Calendar Girls, a comedy about breaking with tradition; followed by It’s a Wonderful Life, the radio version of the beloved Christmas classic; then a story about love and possibilities in Later Life, and the special relationship between a mother and son in For The Pleasure of Seeing Her Again. Wrapping up the season is one of North America’s most popular musicals, The Music Man.
Please consider becoming part of our energetic and imaginative team with a BTG membership. Whatever your talent, we encourage participation at all levels both on stage and behind the scenes. We hope you will consider purchasing a season subscription and spreading the word about our exciting line up among your friends and family.
Thank you for supporting live theatre in the Quinte Region. See you at the Open House, and enjoy the season!
