🫈Mr. Delahay and his six children spent the past year on Vancouver Island escaping their problems that await in London Ontario, including their house pitching into the river. Following Mrs. Delahay’s anxiety attack last year, the eldest son Colin has been reforming his terrible triplet brothers through organic food and trickery with the hope that their Granny may let them all return to live in her mansion. Now they’re being put to the test. To reunite them all, Colin must create the best story ever told, a story of sasquatches and monster robots.

📷 No cameras in the rehearsal hall! Unless of course it’s the Bitumens, a family of photographers whose heads have turned into cameras. This fashionable glove puppet, modelled by Taylor Bogaert, represents this family of shutterbugs. The Bitumens are just one in a plethora of fantastical inventions in Take the Big Picture onstage June 10 to 14 at Fanshawe Pioneer Village.
