The New Canadian Curling Club

A story that will sweep its' way into your heart

FEBRUARY 25 - MARCH 23, 2025

Written by Mark Crawford, Directed By Andrea Boyd
Originally Produced By Festival Antigonish

Inspired by the local refugee resettlement program, a small town organizes a Learn-to-Curl class to welcome newcomers. But when its organizer slips on the ice and breaks her hip, the rink’s ice maker and former champion curler Stuart MacPhail is forced to step in as head coach. Trouble is, Stuart has some strong opinions about immigrants...

What follows is an inspiring and hilarious story of a group of unlikely athletes who face off against local prejudice and claim their identity as “new Canadians”. Don’t miss the hit comedy about burning rocks, bonspiel beers, and becoming a team.

We're thrilled to bring Festival Antigonish's production of Mark Crawford's new comedy The New Canadian Curling Club to our Scotiabank Studio Stage in Winter 2025.
