Connecting Place and People
Delta Stageworks Theatre Society brings together experienced theatre artists and community-based theatre-makers to present innovative new theatre projects for Delta audiences. Using the theatre art practices of devised theatre, site-specific performance as well as traditional forms of theatre, Delta Stageworks offers a dynamic new vision for theatre experiences in our community. We are a registered non-profit arts organization and our mandate includes a commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion in all that we do.

What’s Happening?
To Perfection, by Meghan Gardiner, directed by Renee Iaci and proudly presented by Delta Stageworks
Wholesome and hearty. Fresh and frosty…Is it cake? Or is it To Perfection? Gloria, a former celebrity TV chef, played by the inimitable Patti Allan, is reuniting with her estranged grandchild, Alex. The temperature rises when Alex, (Cece Ludwar), comes out as non-binary and opens a ‘genderational’ divide between them. Can Gloria and Alex find the perfect mix for their family recipe? Or will it all bubble over and explode? To Perfection tackles issues of modern life without the sugar coating, showing us family conflict in a relatable and hilarious way and ensuring audiences discover all the right ingredients for the perfect food-for-thought theatre outing.
Playing at Genesis Theatre in Ladner, BC October 2-6, with a preview on October 1,To Perfection premiered at the Surrey Arts Centre to high praise from audiences and critics for its humour and awareness of the ‘genderational’ divide that families can experience when a young person comes out. Delta Stageworks company member Renee Iaci directs the play developed by shameless hussy productions.

Then & Now- an online docucomedy shorts web series available FREE on YouTube
Back in the spring 2020, as the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic went from something happening ‘’over there” somewhere; to something fearfully immediate and visceral in our lives, at Delta Stageworks we started thinking about creating a storytelling theatre piece around these lived experiences in our local community. We invited members of the community to join us in documenting and creatively processing what was happening around us and created a theatre event. We figured that sometime down the road we might all want to reflect back on some of the monumental impacts to our lives the pandemic wrought.
Flash forward to 2024… working with company member, filmmaker Cliff Caprani, the company has come together again to take a retrospective look at the impacts of two years of lockdown living. In a ‘docucomedy’ digital shorts series that delivers humour and hope, you’ll meet members of the Delta community and the Delta Stageworks creatives who put the original project together.
