O Christmas Tea: A British Comedy - Chilliwack Cultural Centre

The holiday season is fast approaching and, after nearly two full years away from the stage, beloved British comedy duo James and Jamesy are back with O Christmas Tea. Whether it’s with friends, family, loved ones, or on your own, an evening spent in the theatre with James and Jamesy is sure to be an evening you will never forget.

The shows will be held:

●        Friday, December 10th and Saturday, December 11th at 7.30pm, Chilliwack Cultural Centre

O Christmas Tea is a rollicking holiday spectacular that’s ideal for fans of Monty Python, Mr. Bean, and Dr. Seuss. James and Jamesy have delighted audiences for decades with their unique take on traditional British comedy and they’re excited to make their eagerly awaited return to the stages. 

“After 20 months away from the stage, we are beside ourselves --  both literally and metaphorically -- to be reunited with our audiences, many of whom have become like extended family over the festive season, and to again feel the buzz that only the magic of live theatre can bring,” explained Aaron Malkin (James), the taller, less-hirsute half of the award-winning duo.

The time away, due to pandemic restrictions on live entertainment, has reinforced not only the passion the duo has for its shows, but also the importance that humour plays in our lives. 

“We are so excited to once again be able to bring friends and family together, especially now - more than ever - we are reminded to dream big, embrace imagination, and celebrate a childlike excitement for merriment,” added Alastair Knowles (Jamesy), the eccentric half of the award-winning duo. “There are definitely going to be some surprises for our regular audiences, with whom we’re thrilled to reconnect this season.”

O Christmas Tea is rich with wordplay, comic physicality, and cleverly crafted interactive elements reminiscent of classic British pantomimes. However, it is James & Jamesy’s boundless imagination and endearing chemistry that creates the extraordinary magic of this unique festive experience.

During the action-packed production, a Christmas wish for tea is surprisingly fulfilled in titanic proportions. As the world floods with tea, our duo must find innovative and hilarious solutions to keep them afloat as they try to make their way back home.

Already a festive tradition for thousands of theatre-goers, this year the O Christmas Tea tour is brighter than ever, with dates across the Pacific Northwest including seven venues in the Lower Mainland - West Vancouver, North Vancouver, New Westminster, Surrey, Abbotsford, Mission and Chilliwack - offering both long-time fans and those new to the James and Jamesy experience a chance to enjoy the festive production.

Grab your teacups!

Creations In Isolation - Chilliwack Cultural Centre

Experience an evening of passion, power, and beauty with Ballet Jörgen!

Creativity, dedication and artistry reach new heights as renowned Canada’s Ballet Jörgen returns to the Chilliwack Cultural Centre with Creations In Isolation on October 10! CBJ takes to the stage with an enchanting mixed programme that will showcase excerpts from major classical ballets as well as exciting new contemporary works. With pieces from Romeo & Juliet, The Nutcracker and Anne of Green Gables – The Ballet®, you won’t get a chance to see such a repertoire anywhere else!

“We are so pleased to bring you Creations in Isolation at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre,” says CBJ’s Artistic Director, Bengt Jörgen. “While we are very proud of the work we have done to deliver programming digitally for the past year we know it will never replace the experience of a live performance. We are excited to be back on stage with our community in Chilliwack!”  

Inspired by the perseverance shown by CBJ’s dancers and choreographers in the face of lockdown, Creations in Isolation is a wonderous performance built on the dancers and choreographers working virtually from home. While the COVID-19 pandemic created many challenges, it also sparked a new artistic approach for those at CBJ, pushing them to bring their own creativity to the forefront and explore new ideas that they otherwise wouldn’t have considered. 

“Working virtually with Canada’s Ballet Jörgen’s dancers was such an uplifting experience,” explains resident CBJ choreographer Hanna Kiel. “It doesn’t matter if they are rehearsing in their living room or dance studio these artists are so positive and happy to be dancing. COVID gave us many challenges, especially in the dance world, but I feel in some ways it has raised our spirits higher and showed us how important it is to keep creating and dancing in this difficult time. I feel the dancers’ excitement in every rehearsal and this really inspired me to stay strong.”

Canada’s Ballet Jörgen has become a staple within Chilliwack’s art community with their vibrant and inspiring performances, and workshops. Creations in Isolation is set to welcome you back into the world of dance with a program that will showcase exceptional ballets that were all created exclusively for CBJ, by Canadian and Canada based choreographers. Don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to see just how far these performers have reached and let them sweep you up into the magic of an unforgettable program that you won’t soon forget.

With the constantly changing environment of a COVID-19 world, The Society strives towards keeping pace and making sure The Centre is functioning at the highest level of safety protocols, while also keeping the arts alive. The Society continuously strives to provide the community with a place to be immersed in arts and culture, to provide the community with a gathering place for creative expression, discovery, imagination and inspiration, and we cannot wait to welcome you back.

Creations in Isolation is generously sponsored by: The Chilliwack Progress, the British Columbia Arts Council, the City of Chilliwack, the Province of British Columbia and the Department of Canadian Heritage.

Creations in Isolation is coming to the Chilliwack Cultural Centre on October 10, 2021, at 7:30 pm. Tickets are $25, and can be purchased at the Centre Box Office, online at www.chilliwackculturalcentre.ca, or by calling 604-391-SHOW(7469).

The Chilliwack Museum & Archives is seeking creative pieces to display in the upcoming Community Art Show. The exhibition will be hosted from September 24, 2021 to January 22, 2022 and will feature imaginative works from the Community of Chilliwack.

The Exhibition will open on September 24, 2021 to coincide with Culture Days, a national celebration of arts, culture, and heritage. This year’s theme, Re:Imagine is based on the idea that throughout the challenges of the past year, arts and culture has emerged as a means of hope and reprieve from the difficulties of COVID life. What will the post-pandemic world look like and how can communities contribute to a brighter future?

“During the pandemic, creativity has been flourishing at home; often as a method of expressing how we feel in these unprecedented times” says Sarah Belley, Education and Engagement Coordinator, “our goal is to bring multiple demographics of our community together to highlight the talent and experiences of Chilliwack”.

There are minimal specifications on what can be submitted and there is no age requirement! There is no limit to how many pieces can be submitted, however, the number of pieces displayed will be dependent on total submission and display space. Submissions may be of any medium including, but not limited to: crochet, textiles, polymer clay, ceramics, felting, paint, drawing etc. Wall mounted submissions must be submitted in a frame with a hanging mechanism.

Over the next week we will be highlighting the businesses, organizations and people that have helped make this amazing 1,000th Post Giveaway happen, be sure to enter before Friday!

Our first time we stepped in Cultivate Cafe (10015 Young Road) located on the corner of Minter Country Garden, we knew it was something different. We got to sit down and chat with Cam and Peggy, marvellous married couple and owners, to learn all about Cam’s cooking history and his deep connection to Chilliwack. They moved back to Chilliwack to set up shop and serve some incredibly good food.

Minter Country Garden is and has been a mainstay in Chilliwack for quite sometime. Brian Minter is a legend in the gardening community for his vast knowledge and passion for everything with plants, flowers, trees and the like. Not only is Brian known for his gardening skills but he’s also the one person we have watched firsthand that understands customer service better than almost anyone we know. He’s always willing to provide the help and direction in his store for anything and everything they have there. He’s even been known to call customers and show up at their homes to check on how their gardens are doing.

We’re thankful that both of these businesses are in town and that they share the same space. We highly recommend a breakfast or lunch at Cultivate Cafe and then some perusing at Minter Country Garden.
