2024 Season

Onion Skins & Peach Fuzz: The Farmerettes*

World Premiere

By Alison Lawrence

*Based on the book by Shirleyan English & Bonnie Sitter

Directed by Autumn Smith

July 1 – 20, 2024

Previews: July 1, 2

Opening Night: Wednesday, July 3

Monday to Saturday at 6 pm

Onion Skins is a funny and enlightening exploration of the largely unknown story of the teenage girls who stepped up and worked on farms across Canada to feed the troops, and indeed all Canadians, during WWII. These ‘Farmerettes,’ all in their 90s now, tell us that the summers they worked those farms were the best of their lives, even 70 or more years later.

Jim Watts: Girl Reporter

World Premiere

By Beverley Cooper

Directed by Kim Blackwell

July 30 – August 24, 2024

Previews: July 30, 31

Opening Night: Thursday, August 1

Tuesday to Saturday at 6 pm

Jim Watts: Girl Reporter is a fascinating exploration of the experience of trailblazing youth who illegally flocked to Spain to fight fascism, attempting to stop its march across Europe, in the mid-1930s. Jean ‘Jim’ Watts was the only woman to join Canada’s regiment in Spain, the MacKenzie-Papineaus. The play takes us from Toronto to Madrid, from political rallies to the battlefields of Spain. And Peterborough’s own Jim Higgins - union organizer and hero - figures prominently in the story.


Enhance your 4th Line gift purchase with a charcuterie snack box to enjoy during the show. Summer never tasted better with delicacies such as Fresh Herb & Cheddar Cheeseball, cured meats, crudités and more. Snack boxes are $23 each.

4th Line kicked off its Chair-ity Campaign (pun intended) in 2023, providing new and improved seating at the Winslow Farm theatre venue, built for stability, comfort, and durability! Audience members can purchase naming rights to their own chair, or in honour or memory of a loved one, with an engraved plaque. A $200 donation to the chair will get each donor a personalized plaque on a chair.
