This psychological thriller based on Stephen Kingโ€™s novel Misery follows successful romance novelist Paul Sheldon, who is rescued from a car crash and wakes up captive in a secluded home owned by his self-identified โ€œnumber one fan,โ€ Annie Wilkes. While Paul is convalescing, Annie reads the manuscript of his latest book and becomes enraged when she discovers the author has killed off her favorite character, Misery Chastain. Annie forces Paul to write a new Misery novel and he quickly realizes Annie has no intention of letting him go. The irate Annie has Paul writing as if his life depends on it โ€“ and it does.

Production Title: The Dinner Theatre
Book & Music By: Rick Worrall
Directed By: Angela Quinn
Music Director: Neville Bowman
Performance Dates: early November 2026 (exact dates coming soon!)
Rehearsals: Based on cast availability
In-Person Auditions: June 16, 2026 in Kelowna (by appt. only)
This is a non-equity production with payment by honorarium

๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐——๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฒ is a heartfelt and sharply funny two-person musical set over the course of a single summer evening in a worn Moncton dinner theatre dressing room. Once-celebrated Broadway legends Liam Mitchell and Sarah Rogers havenโ€™t shared a stageโ€”or spoken honestly to each otherโ€”in years. But when an injury forces Sarah to step in opposite Liam at the last minute in Fiddler on the Roof, old wounds, unfinished love, and decades of resentment resurface backstage between curtain calls.

As the night unfolds through biting banter, emotional confessions, and soaring musical numbers, the pair relive the rise and collapse of their relationship while rediscovering the chemistry that once made them unforgettable. Guidedโ€”and occasionally manipulatedโ€”by an overworked young stage manager determined to save both the show and perhaps their hearts, Liam and Sarah must decide whether their story truly ended long agoโ€ฆ or if one final act still remains.
