    Tell Tale Harbour

    Tell Tale Harbour

    “A HEARTFELT JOURNEY TO DEFINE WHAT HOME MEANS…”

    Based on the original screenplay The Grand Seduction by Ken Scott

    Co-created by: ADAM BRAZIER, ALAN DOYLE, BOB FOSTER, EDWARD RICHE

    Led by a creative team of acclaimed East Coast artists, this new musical comedy celebrates the people, the trials, and the triumphs of living in a small community in Atlantic Canada. The story of Tell Tale Harbour is as relatable as it is ridiculous, as hilarious as it is heartfelt, and full of East Coast pride.

    Deep in the heart of Atlantic Canada sits a small harbour losing hope. The once bountiful fishing village is struggling to survive, and half the population is relocating to the mainland for better opportunities. The community is looking for a miracle when an opportunity arises to bring a state-of-the-art frozen french fry facility to town. There’s just one major obstacle; to secure the factory, the harbour must have a full-time resident doctor. Realizing this might be their last chance to save their beloved community, the townspeople come together to charm an interim doctor into moving there permanently.

    Meet Maggie, a Scottish single mother of three boys. Set between 1954 and 1976, MAGGIE tells the inspirational tale of a fiery school cleaner living in the mining town of Lanarkshire Scotland. After suffering an unthinkable loss, Maggie must rely on her strength, sense of humour and fiercely loyal group of friends to raise her boys and protect them from the harsh and ever-changing world around them. Based on a true story, MAGGIE features a soul-stirring score by award-winning recording artist Johnny Reid. A tribute to Johnny’s Granny and the people of an almost forgotten generation, this exciting new musical is a celebration of family, community and the joy and laughter that can be found, even in the darkest of times.

    “‘Maggie’ celebrates not only my Gran and her life but also an entire generation of women who fought through some tough times by keeping faith, hope, love, family, friendship and humour close to heart.”
