Join Central Alberta Theatre’s holiday celebration with Jane Austen’s beloved characters and a new tale of love and family.

Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley by Lauren Gunderson & Margo Melcon. Directed by Wanda Oler & Robyn Jeffrey.

Romantic Comedy

A sequel to Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice set two years after the novel ends, MISS BENNET continues the story, only this time with bookish middle-sister Mary as its unlikely heroine. Mary is growing tired of her role as dutiful middle sister in the face of her siblings’ romantic escapades. When the family gathers for Christmas at Pemberley, an unexpected guest sparks Mary’s hopes for independence, an intellectual match, and possibly even love.

The play runs from November 29 to December 15, 2024, in the Studio Theatre upstairs at CAT Studios (Red Deer Memorial Centre).

Join us this December as young dancers from across central Alberta entertain you as they perform The Nutcracker Ballet. Nothing brings the magic of the holiday season to life better than the world’s favorite ballet.  

Looking for an exciting way to keep your kids active on PD Days? Sign them up for our Sports PD Day Camp, designed for children aged 5-10. They'll enjoy a fun-filled day with games, interactive exhibits, crafts, and more!

Comedy super star Derek Seguin is touring Canada with his hysterical new show to celebrate his 20^th year as a professional joke teller. Derek’s twice Juno nominated stand-up comedy is always a pure reflection of his dysfunctional life, but naturally seen through his “slightly” twisted looking glass. This show will feature more of his hilarious stories on the challenges of relationships with his girlfriend, his three nearly grown-up children and every-day life in a mixed-up world that he finds peculiar at best. With barely a moment to catch your breath between laughs there is never a dull moment in Derek’s shows and for 20 years audiences have loved him for it, but he loves you more!

One of CBC’s The Debaters’ fan-favorites; people are often surprised at the raw nature of Derek’s stand-up …and how short he is. If you haven’t seen him live before; come out and discover the many hilarious surprises that his in-person shows are renowned for. No subject is off limits and no rabbit hole too deep.
