Bus Stop Theatre Halifax, NS

While the night may be dark, the The Bus Stop Theatre will be aglow with laughs, libations, and good cheer during this very special Autobiographical Christmas Special featuring Logan Robins & Olivier Blais!
WHEN?
The doors to the lobby and bar will open half an hour before the show at 7pm, with the show starting at 7:30pm! The first act will run approximately 45 minutes, followed by a 15 minute intermission (to reset the stage and refill your drinks), and a second act of approximately 45 minutes.
WHERE?
At The Bus Stop Theatre Co-op!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Autobiographical Fiction is an entirely improvised solo show created by the audience (including you)! Before each of the two acts begin the audience will have a chance to fill the stage with a wide array of costumes and props while also filling out sticky notes with festive-themed prompts, lines, song recommendations, and more! This is a chance to be creative, collaborative, and a little silly as you unleash your inner playwright/director/set designer/sound designer/costume designer! *Audience participation is never mandatory. Your'e safe. We promise...
SHOULD I BRING ANYTHING?
As a matter of fact... Yes (if you'd like to)!!
While we will provide sticky notes and writing utensils (and some festive props/set) we would love you to bring something from home that you would like to donate this holiday season! Wether it be a winter-coat you've outgrown or a coffee table that has never quite worked in your living room, we are accepting donations of any non-perishable item which will be used in the show and then cleaned, delivered, and donated by UDTCo. to Out of the Cold Community Association (and other charitable orginizations).
That's right! You can clear some much needed space in the house right before the holidays while contributing to Autobiographical Fiction and a great cause (talk about a win/win/win, huh?)!
Our primary goal is to gather items to donate to Out of the Cold (you can see a list of what they are looking for below).
If we collect items that they are not in need of we will donate to either:
Habitat for Humanity https://www.habitat.org/restores/donate-goods
Byrony House https://bryonyhouse.ca/ways-to-support-us/
Shelter Nova Scotia https://www.shelternovascotia.com/
*If none of the above organizations will take a certain item we will still clean it and bring it to Value Village
**These are all incredible resources in our city you should look into supporting regardless!!
