CATnips
Big things have small beginnings. Central Alberta Theatre is pleased to announce its annual CATNIPS ONE-ACT Festival, featuring an array of Red Deer talent. Our hour long festival offers three bite sized plays which offer comedy, romance, and a little bit of edge. You’ll be surprised, intrigued, and begging for more. ADMISSION IS FREE, but seating is limited so we ask you to please book your tickets through showpass. Donations will be accepted at the door. There will be a cash bar available. The festival contains mature subject matter with warnings for adult language and situations. This is not suitable for young audiences.
