Theatre Collingwood Donor Drive Gains Momentum With Fall Highlights

Theatre Collingwood has announced strong progress in its ELEVATE Donor Drive, a fundraising initiative supporting year-round live performances and drama education programs. The campaign has reached 70% of its $50,000 goal, with donations ensuring the non-profit can continue offering professional productions, concerts, and workshops for all ages.

To encourage continued giving, Theatre Collingwood is offering a Give Early, Win Big incentive: donations of $100 or more received before Friday, October 10 will be entered into a draw to win either four tickets to the 2026 Porchside Festival or a Family Pass for four to The Little Mermaid: The Panto.

Alongside the donor campaign, Theatre Collingwood will present two fall highlights. Singer John McDermott will return for his third annual concert on Saturday, November 8, with performances at 3:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. at New Life Church. Known for his powerful voice and storytelling, McDermott will perform songs from the Isles paired with personal reflections from his decades-long career.

Later in the season, the play Spycraft will take the stage at the Marsh Street Centre on November 20 and 21. This World War II thriller follows a female operative who spies on the Nazis in occupied France by knitting code into garments, blending history, suspense, and wit with a unique perspective on the Jewish experience.
