Orangeville: Theatre Orangeville presents a Stewart Lemoine double-bill starting October 15

Wednesday, September 30, 2026

Theatre Orangeville presents a double-bill of plays by Stewart Lemoine from October 15 to November 1.

This double bill of witty one-act plays delivers two sharply observed and delightfully offbeat stories.

In Love is for Poor People a forthright and glamorous woman of the world presents a candid look back at the trajectory of her long and eventful life, from the perspective of her younger self.

In Or You Can Do Nothing Owen Fyfe has two significant gifts: a home of improbable size and a rare penchant for identifying unexpected potential in total strangers. In this freewheeling one-man narrative escapade, he recounts how a provocative remark from his dentist spurred him to maximize the impact of these attributes while unlocking the mysteries of his own past.

Warning: Positivity!
