New production to support food bank

Murder and mind reading are coming to the stage of the Fergus Grand Theatre in a production in support of the Centre Wellington Food Bank (CWFB).

Vision Theatre Productions presents Murder by Natural Causes April 3 to 7.  

The play tells the story of Allison, who enlists the help of a struggling actor to murder her rich husband, Arthur. The intricate plan is too foolproof to fail – or is it? After all, Arthur is a famous mentalist who can read minds.

The story is filled with greed, lies, mind games and murder. The plot twists and turns to a conclusion that keeps audiences guessing.

The performance is the final production of the 2012-13 season for Vision Theatre Productions, which donates proceeds to local charitable organizations.

In December the theatre group donated more than $7,500 to Groves Memorial Community Hospital in Fergus  through the I Believe campaign.

With this production the group is looking forward to assisting the CWFB in its efforts to help those in the community who need a helping hand.

Donations to the CWFB will be accepted during the run of the show and can be left at the box office during performances.

This year’s production features director Ken Harkes, who has been involved with community theatre in the Centre Wellington area for nearly 20 years.

Audiences may remember his most recent appearance on the stage of the Fergus Grand Theatrenin Vision Theatre Productions’ A Christmas Story.  

Murder By Natural Causes runs at the Fergus Grand Theatre from April 3 to 7. For tickets call the Fergus Grand Theatre box office at 519-787-1981 or order online at www.fergusgrandtheatre.ca.
