Seeds & Salt Theatre

An exciting event is coming up next weekend - Seeds & Salt Theatre, a travelling historical theatre company from down island, is coming to Paradise Meadows for a performance in the outdoor amphitheatre. The show happens on Saturday July 16 at 10:30 a.m.

Four talented actors will present four fascinating true stories from Vancouver Island's history: "Bedtime Stories: Dreaming of Vancouver Island" will feature 'Strathcona Park 100' , the story of the creation of Strathcona Park.
“This is not the way you remember history from your school days, this is live. These unforgettable stories capture your emotions in a way the written word cannot,” says Maureen Alexander of the Bamberton Historical Society. “The brilliance of this show is the creation of a lot from a little. The stories are hilariously and movingly told, using minimal props and agile acting that will challenge your imagination.”

Bring the whole family for this entertaining, free performance! The show is part of a series of 'Parks 100' Centennial Events celebrating the 100th anniversary of BC Parks.

By the way, today's volunteer at the Centre is Darrell, who is a member of the Comox District Mountaineering Club - an experienced hiker familiar with Strathcona Park, as well as a talented nature photographer - check out her work here.
