A Midsummer Night’s Dream —Friday and Saturday at 7:00pm (Thursday May 28 7:00pm-PWYC)
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Step into a world where logic dissolves and reality flickers at the edges with A Midsummer Night’s Dream, presented by Wolfville Social Club.
This reimagined production transforms Shakespeare’s familiar tale into something uncanny and immersive. What begins as a story of lovers’ quarrels quickly unravels into a disorienting landscape where identities shift, power dynamics blur, and the line between fantasy and reality disappears. Like wandering too far into the woods—or stepping through a looking glass—the world reshapes itself, leaving characters grasping for certainty in a place governed by unseen forces.
Featuring gender-swapped roles, the production offers a fluid and dynamic exploration of affection, jealousy, and ambition. Relationships evolve in real time, challenging assumptions about authority and identity while inviting audiences to see the story from unexpected perspectives.
Directed by Jim Hill, the production balances surreal transformation with emotional immediacy, grounding its strangeness in deeply human connection. An intimate staging draws audiences close to the action, while design elements create a living, breathing world where magic seeps in quietly before taking full hold.
Following acclaimed productions like The Rocky Horror Show and a midwinter festival of one-act plays, Wolfville Social Club continues its commitment to bold, inclusive, and community-driven theatre. This Midsummer Night’s Dream embraces contradiction—playful yet disquieting, familiar yet strange—and lingers like a dream that resists easy interpretation.
Tickets: $25 in advance, $30 at the door

Joe H Henry & Cameron Nickerson— 7:30pm
Joe H Henry & Cameron Nickerson
with special guest Lily Gunn
Al Whittle Theatre is pleased to host an evening of Atlantic Canadian songwriting at its finest, featuring Joe H. Henry and Cameron Nickerson, with special guest Lily Gunn.
Joe H Henry brings a commanding presence and a deep well of experience to the stage. Known for his powerful voice, Henry’s songs are rooted in hard truths, lived stories, and the rich traditions of blues, soul and alt-country music. His performances are equal parts grit and grace, delivered with an honesty that resonates long after the final note.
Sharing the bill is Cameron Nickerson, a rising force in the Canadian bluegrass and roots scene. Blending progressive bluegrass with modern country storytelling, Nickerson’s music is energetic, heartfelt, and grounded in his Maritime roots. Fresh off a breakout year of national recognition and international performances, Cameron’s live shows balance virtuosic musicianship with raw, relatable songwriting.
Opening the night is special guest Lily Gunn, whose intimate songs and expressive delivery have quickly earned her a reputation as a compelling new voice in the region. With a sound that’s both tender and fearless, Gunn sets the tone perfectly for an evening centered on connection and craft.
This show brings together three distinct voices, united by strong songs, honest performances, and a shared love of roots music — all on the beautiful stage of the Al Whittle Theatre.

OBEX — 7pm
In pre-internet 1987, Conor and his dog Sandy live a life of seclusion, lost in the slow-rendering graphics of early Macs and televisions aglow with late night horror movie marathons. But when he begins playing OBEX, a new and mysterious, state-of-the-art computer game, he finds himself trapped in a low-tech, but high-stakes analog hellscape as the line between reality and game blurs.
Audacious and uncanny, writer-director Albert Birney's OBEX is a delightfully skewed lo-fi fantasy. Shot in striking black and white, this surreally nostalgic nightmare revisits the dawn of personal computing to reflect on the loneliness of our always-online present day.
