Don't miss breakout indie-folk performer Daniel James McFadyen in Victoria on Monday, July 20th.

victoriaplayhouse.com/shows

McFadyen is an award-winning indie-folk artist whose expressive lyricism, charismatic stage presence, and road-worn storytelling have made him one of Canada's most compelling contemporary voices.

His rise has been powered equally by his dynamic, deeply interactive live shows. His cross-Canada tours have sold out major venues-including Toronto's Great Hall, Halifax's Marquee Ballroom, and Ottawa's Overflow Brewing-cultivating a devoted and ever-growing fanbase. In 2024, he earned three Music Nova Scotia Awards, the most of any artist that year.

Celebrate The Ross Family Ceilidh's 20th Anniversary (most) Tuesdays and (many) Wednesdays this summer at the Playhouse!

victoriaplayhouse.com/shows

When quirky, personable siblings Stephanie, Johnny, and Danielle come together as a band, they are no longer just a family, no longer just Rosses. They are: the Ross Family. (Cue the cackles).

Big vocals, heartfelt nerdy stories, stylish fiddle sets, wicked piano, and fine step-dancing: The fruit of several generations of Ross and Arsenault values, talents, languages, and hardship.

The group desires to preserve and play with their centuries-old PEI heritage, as well as contemporary folk influences. Add in these music lovers' varied tastes and there lays the foundation for their original music. Songwriting that tends to reflect on how our roots, our home, our people shape us.

Even after twenty years of performance, the bright stage lights have not blinded the Ross Family from truly seeing those who support and connect with their art. Art that is often described as uplifting and emotionally stirring, full-circle and full-sounding, with sincere depth and goofiness. In other words, love.

🎭 Coming this August - The Wonder of it All!

victoriaplayhouse.com/shows

Full of humour and heart, The Wonder of It All is a witty, touching and acutely observed comedy by Canadian playwright Mark Weatherley, who will star in the show alongside his real-world spouse, PEI-native Monique Lund.

If marriage is the right to annoy one special person for the rest of your life, then Charmaine and Kingsley have the perfect marriage. That is until a surprise from their past meddles with the certainty of their future. But after 25 years is it too late for them to rediscover the redemptive power of love?

🎭 Happy World Art Day from the Victoria Playhouse!

Every April 15th, we celebrate the power of art to connect, inspire, and transform. And we’re especially proud to shine a spotlight on the incredible artistic talent of Prince Edward Island.

Over the years, our stage has been home to a rich tapestry of Island creativity. From heartfelt storytelling and original theatre to traditional ceilidhs, contemporary music, and unforgettable performances by local masters, PEI artists have shaped the spirit of the Playhouse in profound ways. Their work reflects the rhythms, humour, and resilience of Island life, bringing audiences closer to the stories that define our home.

Please contribute to the celebration by taking some time today to share a reflection on a work of art that has touched you, and include the tag so others can see your contribution.

Séan returns to PEI with a new set of original songs, alongside the trusted favourites audiences know and love, for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the moment we’re living in.

Between constant noise, relentless headlines, and the pressure to keep moving without pause, the Canadian music legend’s latest album SINK OR SWIM asks a simple but vital question: how do we stay afloat when the world feels louder, faster and heavier by the day?

Armed only with his guitar, and an unwavering commitment to truth, Sean McCann invites audiences into a shared space of reflection, resilience, and release where singing isn’t optional, it’s essential.
