Our new Recital Hall series begins tonight with the Opening of Gunmetal Blues! This musical parody of the film noir detective story will be performed at 9:30pm (4pm on Sat Feb 4) below the Vancouver Playhouse Mainstage, following performances of Red. Both productions are on stage until February 4. We are pleased to participate in the concept of #Neverbedark by enlivening this Civic Theatre space and encouraging active community involvement. We’ll continue this action with the production of Relephant Theatre’s The Exquisite Hour April 23-May 5 as part of our partnership with Vancouver International Fringe Festival and the Playhouse Fringe Award.
This post features a sneak peek at Gunmetal Blues, Max Reimer’s favourite “pocket-musical”, featuring actors Tom Arntzen, Meghan Gardiner and Andrew Wheeler. Photos by Emily Cooper.
Tickets for Gunmetal Blues are only $20 each, available in advance or at the door (Hamilton & Dunsmuir) as of 8:30pm. We are offering pay-what-you-can admission on Wed Jan 25 at 9:30pm; tickets will be available for purchase, cash only, as of 8:30pm.

Hey you guys! We have been hearing great things about your wonderful production of GUNMETAL BLUES all the way out here in Stratford, Ontario. We love the photos, everyone looks fantastic - we can almost imagine the performances. We wish we could be there to see you in the flesh. But we are there in spirit every night - and are wishing you the very best. Continue to knock ‘em dead!
keep on breaking those legs!
