The adventures of Tom Sawyer kicks off the 40th season for Elora Community Theatre (ECT).

The production tells the tale of mischievous rascals Tom and Huck, in the beloved Mark Twain family classic adapted by Ric Averill.

The cast and crew features local musicians, with award-winning director Deb Stanson, who many will remember from past ECT shows including Anne of Green Gables, Anne of Avonlea and The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.

The second play of the season is the adult comedy A Dying Family Tradition by Dianne Lococo, directed by veteran theatre director Robin Bennett.

Following this production is Sitting Pretty directed by Mary Lloyd, who will be remembered from Steel Magnolias, which she directed a few years ago.

Season tickets are $51 for all three shows, with a senior subscription for $45. ECT offers reduced prices for students and groups.

Show dates for Tom Sawyer are Nov. 9 to 11 and Nov. 15 to 17, with matinees Nov. 10 and 11. All performances are at the Fergus Grand Theatre. Call 519-787-1981 or visit fergusgrandtheatre.ca or eloracommunitytheatre.com.
