"Laurier: The White Plume"
Few would argue Sir Wilfrid Laurier was the most dynamic speaker this country has ever seen, and certainly a man of style and presence. Through his famous speeches and anecdotes, the audience is witness to an era rich in Canadian history. From the early beginnings of his political career to the development of the Canadian Navy, this dynamic one-man show is certain to entertain and shed light on one of the most famous Canadians of them all.

"Our Home"
Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Mackenzie King were the closest of friends and admired each other greatly. In a fictionalized conversation between these two Canadian icons, we jump back and forth between the trials and tribulations these two men faced. Dramatic at times, light hearted at others, this play reflects on what these two men might have discussed on a summer afternoon on the veranda of their former residence. As a "tour" takes place upstairs, the two men regale in stories of political battles, personal triumph and misunderstood intentions as the spirits of these two men live on in their much loved residence.
