In 2024, JayWalking Theatre did a performance of Gwelf Early Days as a Culture Days event at the River Run Centre. It played to a full house and audiences loved the show.
In early 2025 Bill Nuhn, then General Manager, asked "Do you have another show?"
You see, the house report for Gwelf Early Days was very good.
I mentioned, Lilt of Laughter, Trace of Tears.
And, well, here we are. Tickets are now available for the performance Thursday April 9, 2026. HERE
You'll love this delightful show that provokes laughter, and laughter-tears. A multitude of Irish characters who find themselves in amusing situations. The writing is spot-on capturing that unique way with words that only the Irish possess. That is all thanks to author Charlene Herrold. You'll hear more about her in a future post.

No, you don't need to be Irish to enjoy this show as universal themes of love, loss, life and laughter are adeptly woven into the stories.
As this is being written, a new set is under construction - Thanks to Jim Hoare, well known in Guelph for his work in theatre and Scenic Artist Robin Baird Lewis, no stranger to the art world is sharing her skills and talent.
We hope you will come. You will remember this show long after the hour is over and you will leave the theatre smiling and uplifted.
