Captivating audiences since 1992, “the nearly world-famous” DuffleBag Theatre performs over 600 shows a year across Canada, the US, and internationally. The company’s repertoire ranges from fairy tales (like Sleeping Beauty and Snow White) to classic stories (such as Robin Hood, Peter Pan, and The Three Musketeers), to Shakespeare adaptations (like Romeo & Juliet), and holiday-themed shows (such as A Christmas Carol.) Each year, DuffleBag makes two story titles available and at least one of them will be available in a French/English bilingual format. For the 2024/25 school year, DuffleBag Theatre will be offering Three Musketeers and Sleeping Beauty, both of which are available in a bilingual format.
