The big day is almost here! Thorold Community Theatre is gearing up to unveil their first ever radio drama on November 12th.

'And Then, The Lights Went Out...' is a film-noire play, written by Andy Garland and directed by Deb Howey, and tells the story of hard-boiled private eye Jim O’Reilly as he is forced to navigate a rough landscape of brutes, criminal masterminds, and naive rookie cops.

Thorold Community Theatre is one of a handful tourism-related businesses in Niagara that benefited from a pandemic relief grant, which they used to venture in the world of audio dramas.

Listening passes can be bought at $10 for an individual pass and $25 for a group pass. The listening link will go live at 7:00pm on November 12th and will remain available until November 30th.
