This November, Character Matters Miramichi, with the support of the Scottish Heritage Association, are pleased to present "The Miramichi – A Shipbuilding Legacy," a two-act play exploring the early life of William Davidson. The founder of Miramichi’s first English speaking settlement, Davidson was a somewhat controversial man, born into a world rife with political and religious conflicts. He would navigate his personal life through some very wild waters, and create a new identity for the new world.
The play, an original script written by star Thomas Daley, features a cast of local performers under Daley’s own direction, and explores the themes of family tension, small town gossip and the all consuming desire for success; topics that are as relevant today as they were 250 years ago.
Join us for a memorable voyage on stage. Saturday, November 11th at 7pm and Sunday, November 12th at 2pm at Saint James & Saint John United Church Centre Miramichi. Bring your sweet tooth and sample a selection of desserts.
Tickets are $25 and can be purchased at Brookdale Flower Shop in Newcastle or at Creative Grounds in Chatham and at the door.
Character Matters Miramichi Founded in 2023 by Thomas Daley and Shawn McCarthy focuses on creating heritage based entertainment using homegrown material, while spotlighting talented people in the area of all ages.
