Rapid Fire Theatre@theatresports📢 The rumours are true: Rapid Fire Theatre is moving to our Forever Home!

After many years of searching for the perfect space, we have now signed a 40-year lease for @TELUS' Strathcona Exchange Building located at 10437 – 83 Ave.

A friend mentioned that there's still TONS of tickets to see Hamilton at the Jubilee. Hopefully Edmonton shows it some love.

Looking at it online - time of year aside (people want to be outside / on vacation / not in doors) I am shocked at how many seats are still available for future shows.

Indeed. Use it or lose it, Edmonton. Support the traveling shows, or lament the fewer shows that will travel there.

^the money people spend to see a b-list tour of hamilton, for the most part, leaves the city of edmonton. what people spend could buy a couple of seasons tickets to several local theatre companies and..bonus.... the money stays in the local economy.

We have a long history of supporting travelling shows, I’m sure that will continue.

Oh God, where to start. Do us the favour of pulling up the drawbridge, and then show us all how much better off we'd all be?

My wife and I, as well as a couple of friends, are going next week. It'll be my first live musical as well.
