SUMMARY:Scary Ghost Stories: A Victorian Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Continued from Dec 4-8 \n\n\n\n\nPurchase Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us in the historical Roedde House parlour for the once-popular Victorian tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas! This is our fourth year hosting this performance presented by Famous Artists Limited – all new stories this year\, so don’t miss out! \n\n\n\nDETAILS: \n\n\n\nTelling ghost stories at Christmas began in England in the 1700s. Roedde House has revived this tradition in recent years at the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Winchester\, aided last year by their faithful butler Mr. Tomes as portrayed by Vancouver favourite\, Bernard Cuffling. \n\n\n\nThis year\, 1911\, the Winchesters\, and Tomes\, are off travelling Europe and destined to return next April aboard a brand-new luxury ocean liner! \n\n\n\nAdele\, the maid\, forgot to send out notices cancelling the annual party and so\, the Winchesters’ guests (you) have shown up! Cornered\, but unafraid\, the ghostly tales will be delivered by the “help” of Roedde House\, Adele the maid and Tom the stable boy (it’s 1911\, there are still stables). \n\n\n\nLeft to their own devices\, these two will pillage the Winchesters’ liquor cabinet and high end bon-bon boxes (and share the bon-bons) and then entertain the guests with the most chilling of the Winchester’s collection of Victorian ghost stories and a few Christmas carols. \n\n\n\nDaniel Merlo\, from Cap University\, recently starred in “The Woman in Black” at the Metro Theatre. His sense for the macabre is top drawer and his partner in this crime will be actor and theatrical stalwart\, Angeles Paz-Latapi as Adele the maid. Tea and treats will be served at the interval and visitors can expect the same candle-lit aura of spookiness that always accompanies a Christmas ghost story-telling at Roedde House. \n\n\n\n“It’s crucial these stories be read aloud before the listener takes their bleak\, shadow-filled walk from the parlour space to their cart\, or home. To capture the Victorian ghost story experience is to whisper it by candlelight\, to feel the tendrils of the winter’s chill reaching from the darkness outside the hearth’s glow.” – George Winchester  \n\n\n\nSo welcome to Roedde House for a Christmas experience like no other! \n\n\n\nTea and sweets will be then be served during a short intermission before audience members are invited back into the parlour for one last tale before the Winchesters send everyone off into the shadow-filled night. \n\n\n\nFURTHER DETAILS: \n\n\n\n\nPlease ring the turn-key doorbell on the front door for entry.\n\n\n\nGive yourself plenty of time to find parking. There is paid parking at Broughton. Limited street parking is available on Robson and in the West End.

SUMMARY:Scary Ghost Stories: A Victorian Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Again on the 11th through 15th | From 7pm – 9pm \n\n\n\n\nPurchase Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us in the historical Roedde House parlour for the once-popular Victorian tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas! This is our fourth year hosting this performance presented by Famous Artists Limited – all new stories this year\, so don’t miss out! \n\n\n\nDETAILS: \n\n\n\nTelling ghost stories at Christmas began in England in the 1700s. Roedde House has revived this tradition in recent years at the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Winchester\, aided last year by their faithful butler Mr. Tomes as portrayed by Vancouver favourite\, Bernard Cuffling. \n\n\n\nThis year\, 1911\, the Winchesters\, and Tomes\, are off travelling Europe and destined to return next April aboard a brand-new luxury ocean liner! \n\n\n\nAdele\, the maid\, forgot to send out notices cancelling the annual party and so\, the Winchesters’ guests (you) have shown up! Cornered\, but unafraid\, the ghostly tales will be delivered by the “help” of Roedde House\, Adele the maid and Tom the stable boy (it’s 1911\, there are still stables). \n\n\n\nLeft to their own devices\, these two will pillage the Winchesters’ liquor cabinet and high end bon-bon boxes (and share the bon-bons) and then entertain the guests with the most chilling of the Winchester’s collection of Victorian ghost stories and a few Christmas carols. \n\n\n\nDaniel Merlo\, from Cap University\, recently starred in “The Woman in Black” at the Metro Theatre. His sense for the macabre is top drawer and his partner in this crime will be actor and theatrical stalwart\, Angeles Paz-Latapi as Adele the maid. Tea and treats will be served at the interval and visitors can expect the same candle-lit aura of spookiness that always accompanies a Christmas ghost story-telling at Roedde House. \n\n\n\n“It’s crucial these stories be read aloud before the listener takes their bleak\, shadow-filled walk from the parlour space to their cart\, or home. To capture the Victorian ghost story experience is to whisper it by candlelight\, to feel the tendrils of the winter’s chill reaching from the darkness outside the hearth’s glow.” – George Winchester  \n\n\n\nSo welcome to Roedde House for a Christmas experience like no other! \n\n\n\nTea and sweets will be then be served during a short intermission before audience members are invited back into the parlour for one last tale before the Winchesters send everyone off into the shadow-filled night. \n\n\n\nFURTHER DETAILS: \n\n\n\n\nPlease ring the turn-key doorbell on the front door for entry.\n\n\n\nGive yourself plenty of time to find parking. There is paid parking at Broughton.
