You can pay each time you go for a $5.00 drop-in fee (cash  only) or purchase a membership for $40.00.

It’s a moonlit evening in a Newfoundland fishing village in 1926. Jacob Mercer has just returned home, desperate to win back the heart of his former flame, Mary Snow. Mary, still reeling from the heartbreak Jacob caused when he left, has become engaged to wealthy Jerome McKenzie. But this unexpected visit from Jacob could place her entire future in peril.     

David French is one of Canada’s most critically-acclaimed and widely-produced playwrights. He was born in Coley's Point, the setting of the play, in 1939. Although French moved from Newfoundland to Toronto  with his family as a child, his fascination with his birthplace was        present in many of his plays. In Salt-Water Moon, two young people question the restrictions society places on them, as they ponder their future. Yes, it is a love story, but Salt-Water Moon is also about        breaking the binds of traditional expectations in the pursuit of        happiness.
