Ross Creek Centre for the Arts performance series


Join Gaspereau Vineyards at Ross Creek this summer! Two Planks and a Passion is a wonderful theatre company, and they will be putting on "Rockbound" this summer.


From their website:

"Allen Cole’s new musical tells the story of David Jung, a poor orphan who returns to the island of his birth to claim his rightful share of land, his uncle Uriah, the cunning “King of Rockbound” who is adamant that David has no place on Rockbound, and the various members of the Jung and Krauss families who battle over a small oasis in the midst of the merciless North Atlantic. At once a story of unrequited love and the destructive greed that drives many of the inhabitants of Rockbound, Cole’s musical is humorous, human, and absolutely timeless.


Rockbound is based on the novel of the same name by Frank Parker Day. Released in 1928, Day’s work is one of the best-known pieces of Canadian literature of the period, recently enjoying a resurgence of popularity following its win at the 2004 Canada Reads competition on CBC Radio."


Get your tickets now! We have partnered with Ross Creek to offer wine and food for purchase before the play each evening and at intermissions.
