The show's plot involves a string of murders taking place behind the scenes of a fictional 1950s cowboy musical, Robbin' Hood. The cast of Robbin' Hood is forced to stay inside the theater while Boston police detective Frank Cioffi unravels the mystery, getting involved with the show and falling in love with ingenue Niki Harris in the process.

This classic comedy with a contemporary twist kicks off CLT's year of celebrating 50 years of community theatre in the Comox Valley.
Shakespeare with an upgrade, this is a light-hearted tale about twins shipwrecked on the fantastical sea coast of Illyria: a never-never land of fantasy and romantic comedy where nothing is as it appears. Juicy with passion, the play is about love in its many forms; of a sister for a brother, unrequited love, grief for the loss of love, love of the bottle, love of the one who loves the bottle, self-love, love at first sight and misplaced love. There is much fun along the way as the plot gets tangled and then untangled. Expect a wonderful set with video projection, original music, and some comic fight scenes, along with Shakespeare's classic wit.
WARNING: Adult themes - not suitable for young children.

Shantero Productions presents
Ron James- Mental As Anything
Sunday, April 18th at 8:00 pm
With an unprecedented five television comedy specials under his belt and a new CBC-TV comedy series airing Fridays at 8pm, Canada’s busiest and best-selling comedian RON JAMES takes to the road with a new “gut-bustingly, knee-slappingly funny” 90-minute rant MENTAL AS ANYTHING.
Whether wrestling with society’s accelerated rate of change, stumbling on nostril drooling bull moose during forest hikes, or experiencing the virtues of backyard composting and its promise of immortality, James brings a ‘foot soldier’s perspective from the trenches’ in our collective march through Life’s bright fury.
Incorporating a passionate love of language, with a physically charged word-perfect delivery, James takes the audience on a roller coaster ride of seat-soaking laughs: “a comedic tour de force” - Globe & Mail; “5 STARS - Utterly Brilliant” - Ottawa Sun; “fits of helpless laughter” - Halifax Chronicle Herald; “funniest man in Canada” - Victoria Times-Colonist; “4 STARS - a wheezing, snorting, chortling, gasping night of hilarity” - Edmonton Sun; “convulsed with laughter” - Toronto Star; “fast, funny and smart” - Montreal Gazette; “thunderous standing ovation” - Saskatoon Star Phoenix.
From camping in leaky canvas-walled tent trailers in that idyllic summer of 1969 … to a man at the crossroads of mid-life, James traces a trajectory across the landscape of contemporary culture, satirizing everything from button-down-rule-righteous life insurance agents to sanctimonious eco-freaks ... just ‘connecting the dots’ while trying his best to clarify the chaos of this new century we’re all walking through before he goes Mental As Anything himself!
