Reginas historic Globe Theatre kicks off season

One of Canada’s longest continuously running theatre companies began its 52nd season this November with a blockbuster production.

Regina’s Globe Theatre, named after the famous Shakespearean venue, put on its own production of J. R. R. Tolkien’s famous fantasy The Hobbit. In contrast to Peter Jackson’s special effects-packed big screen trilogy, the stage version – adapted by Kim Selody – relied on actors playing multiple roles and the in-person connections forged by live theatre.

The Hobbit premiere took place on November 28, and the show will run through to December 30. The show received critical praise for its detailed costumes and the performances of its actors, especially narrator Manon Beaudoin, who also plays the fan-favourite role of Gollum.

The poster printing, always a crucial element of advertising for local theatres, uses a Logo Design that features the dragon Smaug looking down on an outline of our hobbit hero Bilbo.

After The Hobbit closes, the Globe will move on to the rest of its 2018-19 season, which includes Canadian comedy Bed and Breakfast, coming-of-age story Gracie and conceptual piece Making Treaty 4, before concluding with another big-name crowd-pleaser in Beauty and the Beast. In addition to these main performances, the Globe will also produce the smaller-scale Sandbox Series, as well as continue to run its Theatre School for learners of all ages.
