From the Chester Playhouse: 

Bluebirds, a play by Governor General Award-winning playwright Vern Thiessen, tells the moving tale of three young nurses—Christy, Maggie, and Bab—who leave their homes to care for wounded soldiers on the front lines during the First World War. Set in Étaples, France in 1918, the play captures the untold stories of those who served and sacrificed, offering a deeply emotional and uplifting tribute to the courage and resilience of the human spirit. To learn more, watch this short promo video on bluebirds
In honour of the service and dedication of those who fought for our country, we will be donating $2 from every ticket sold for Bluebirds to the Chester Legion RCL #44, as a way to give back to an organization that has been incredibly supportive of the Playhouse, especially during our Playhouse Without Walls initiative. We are grateful for the Legion’s support and accommodation during our renovations, allowing us to continue bringing art and culture to the community.
In addition, we would like to offer 10% off for Veterans and members of any Legion. To redeem, please use Promo Code: SERVICE at checkout via our website Chester Playhouse web site or mention it when booking by phone at 902-275-3933
