It's easy to get into a "groundhog day" cycle where every moment feels too similar to the last. Break up the monotony and live a little - or a lot! - by popping local entertainment into your calendar. No freeways, just fun!

Canyon Theatre Guild's Upcoming
Spring Performances Full of Thrills & Chills
Chills: "Wait Until Dark"
Forty-seven years after "Wait Until Dark" premiered on Broadway, Jeffrey Hatcher has adapted Frederick Knott's 1966 original, giving it a new setting. In 1944 Greenwich Village, Susan Hendrix, a blind yet capable woman, is imperiled by a trio of men in her own apartment. As the climax builds, Susan discovers that her blindness just might be the key to her escape, but she and her tormentors must wait until dark to play out this classic thriller's chilling conclusion.
Thrills: "Boeing Boeing"
This 1960s French farce adapted for the English-speaking stage features self-styled Parisian lothario Bernard, who has Italian, German and American fiancees, each a beautiful airline hostess with frequent "layovers." He keeps "one up, one down and one pending" - until unexpected schedule changes bring all three to Paris, and Bernard's apartment, at the same time. Hysterical comedy ensues!
