Join us for Tell Tale Harbour, a down East show co-written and starring music icon Alan Doyle featuring all the songs and laughs you'd expect from the best East Coast kitchen party!

The show is as relatable as it is ridiculous, as hilarious as it is heartfelt, and celebrates the people, the trials, and the triumphs of living in a small town on the edge of the mighty Atlantic Ocean. Check out the VIDEO TRAILER.

The Show: Deep in the heart of Atlantic Canada sits a small but proud harbour eager to keep its community together. With the sudden closing of their precious fish plant, this once bountiful village is looking for a miracle. When an opportunity arises to secure a state-of-the-art frozen french fry factory — and the many jobs it would create — the entire community is galvanized into action. There’s just one major obstacle — to secure the factory, the harbour must have a full-time resident doctor. Realizing this might be their last chance to save their beloved home, the townspeople come together to spin the truth and put on a show to charm an interim doctor into moving there permanently.

Based on the screenplay The Grand Seduction by Ken Scott, and co-created by Adam Brazier, Bob Foster, and Edward Riche, TELL TALE HARBOUR makes its Toronto debut after a smash-hit sell-out run at Confederation Centre of the Arts in Charlottetown, PEI.
