St. Jacobs Country Playhouse Announces 2025 Season

November 1, 2024

Drayton Entertainment's Artistic Director Alex Mustakas today announced the 2025 Season for the St. Jacobs Country Playhouse

“We’re excited to be offering a wide variety of shows for theatregoers at every stage of life,” says Alex Mustakas, Artistic Director of Drayton Entertainment. “From side-splitting comedies, to the beloved annual panto, there really is something for the whole family.”

Opening the 2025 Season in St. Jacobs is the heartwarming comedy written by Joe DiPietro, Over the River and Through the Woods. The generational gap is affectionately portrayed through the eyes of four Italian-American grandparents, who hatch a plan to stop their beloved grandson from leaving. This play is on stage from April 9 to April 27.

Next to take the stage is the 10-time Tony Award® - winning comedy, The Full Monty. When a group of unemployed steelworkers are inspired to make some quick cash, they become a team of amateur male strippers with ‘real man’ bodies. Find out if these lovable misfits can really pull it off! This Broadway hit is on stage from May 14 to June 7

Leading the way into summer is the side-splitting Canadian comedy, Liars at a Funeral. Written by Sophia Fabiilli, this uproarious romp pokes fun at the absurdities of family dynamics and the desperate lengths we go to for love and connection. This family farce is on stage from June 25 to July 12

Get ready to move and groove with the brand new production of The Sound of Soul. Accompanied by a stellar band, the “Soul Man” himself – Broadway (and Drayton Entertainment) star Lee Siegel – and friends will transport audiences back in time as they pay tribute to artists such as Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Otis Redding, and more. Catch this stirring, emotional, and profound musical experience from August 13 to August 31

With the arrival of cooler weather comes the nail-biting thriller, Misery. Written by William Goldman, and based on the acclaimed novel by Stephen King, Misery is a relentless spine-tingling thriller about a successful romance novelist, Paul Sheldon, who gets rescued by his ‘Number One Fan’ after a wintery car crash. This nail-biting game of cat-and-mouse will be on stage from October 8 to October 26

For the final production of the 2025 Season, the long standing British panto tradition continues with the reimagined fairy tale by Caroline Smith, Cinderella: The Panto. Don’t worry, we’ll have you home well before the stroke of midnight! This glittering production is on stage from November 27 to December 28.

The St. Jacobs Country Playhouse is located at 40 Benjamin Rd. E., Waterloo, N2V 2J9.
