Yellow Point Drama Group - YPDG
Community Theatre Since 1952

"Duet for Bench", an evening of two short plays with musical accompaniment will be held for three nights only.

Synopsis:
This is intimate bare bones theater with the emphasis on the actors and story, the only set piece being a simple bench.

In "Rappaport Redux", two strangers with scarred pasts come together in a park setting, and what begins as a turf war over the use of a bench turns into a reluctant bond
as they grapple with the dangers and potential healing that memories can offer.

Ted Girard and Barrie Baker star.
Directed by Brian March.

In "Ferris Wheel" again two strangers are drawn into close quarters by riding a ferris wheel together.
Their fears come to a head when they get stuck at the top of the ride.

Barbara Metcalf and Gordon McInnis star. Directed by Diane Faux.

Busker Ben Ziakin

Yellow Point Drama Group—the second oldest theatre group in BC—got its start in the early 1950s when former opera singer, leading director of drama, and elocution teacher, Anne Mossman moved to Yellow Point from Vancouver. Her enthusiasm for the dramatic arts was contagious and she soon enlisted a nucleus of Cedar and Yellow Point locals to produce YPDG’s first season comprised of three one-act plays: Waltz Time, Dear Departed, and Which Way is the Way to Boston?. The trio of plays went on to win best acting and best directed awards at various Vancouver Island drama festivals.

Fresh from its success, the amateur troupe went on to officially form Yellow Point Drama Group in 1953, and in the 60 years since, has marked a number of successful theatrical milestones, winning numerous festival awards along the way for the quality of its acting, direction, costumes and set design.
