Familiar classics, banjos and tomatoes, for Tweed & Company’s 2027 season

Tweed & Company Theatre has announced its lineup for next season.

Starting things off is Keith Alessi’s Tomatoes Tried to Kill Me but Banjos Saved My Life.

While writer and performer Alessi has described his journey to the stage as highly improbable, his play is based on a true story of leaving the world of corporate board rooms behind to follow a passion that saves his life, according to a release on the season from the company.

Alessi’s story is described as an uplifting tale of “challenge, triumph, and the healing power of the arts and music.”

The show is set to run from June 10-13 at the Marble Arts Centre in Tweed.

The company’s 2027 season will also feature the musical Grease June 23-July 11 at Bancroft Village Playhouse and Come from Away, July 29 to Aug. 8 in Tweed and Aug. 11 to 22 in Bancroft.

Other performances include Beauty and the Beast: The Panto from Nov. 25 to Dec.4 in Tweed and Dec. 8 to 18 in Bancroft.

More information is available at Tweed & Company Theatre’s website.
