Think theatre tickets – and think Shadbolt Centre for the Arts, where the Arts Club Theatre Company will be bringing two of its touring productions in the new year.

On Feb. 3 and 4, local audiences will have a chance to enjoy Misery, William Goldman’s play based on the bestselling thriller by Stephen King. Successful romance novelist Paul Sheldon is rescued from a car crash by his “number 1 fan,” Annie Wilkes – but soon finds out that, while she’s nursing him back to health, she’s in fact keeping him captive.

On March 13 and 14, it’s the return of the award-winning production of Onegin, based on the poem by Pushkin and the opera by Tchaikovsky. It follows Evgeni Onegin’s visit to the Larin family estate, where his romantic charms stir the passions of residents.

Tickets for both productions are on sale now at tickets.shadboltcentre.com or through the box office at 604-205-3000.
