Show Information

Our previous show

The romantic comedy Queen Milli of Galt by Gary Kirkham and directed by Mel Chadwick opens March 8 and plays weekends through March 25.

Synopsis

In 1972, the Duke of Windsor (Edward VIII) dies while living in exile. Two weeks later in Canada, an 80-year-old woman from a small town named Galt has her tombstone engraved, claiming to be his wife. Flashback to 1919 as Edward, then known as the Prince of Wales, visits Canada. Bored with the pomp and circumstance, he slips away from his official duties and begins a romance with a charming young woman. Based on a true story, this is a genuinely witty exploration of unexpected love.
