The McMaster Summer Drama Festival began in 1991, and has since developed a reputation as one of the longest-running summer community theatre groups. Their productions have ranged from classical, to contemporary, to even original works, and adaptations of films.
This year, they are excited to present three very ambitious shows, interpreted by three very talented directors, from July 18-26, 2008.
