Waiting for the Parade (Gibsons)

Experience the magic of live theatre right here in your own community, with entirely local theatre talent - from actors to crew.

Waiting for the Parade takes place on the Home Front, World War II, Calgary. Through a series of 24 slice-of-life vignettes, war time songs and presentational monologues, we are shown the war time experience through the perspective of five very different women, brought together by their collective desire to assist with the war effort. Together these woman struggle, argue, sing, drink and dance, and they find a way to survive a defining moment in Canadian history, when a national identity based on working together and accepting difference was born.
