What do you get when you put together Christmas Eve at the Cooked Goose Tavern, Ebenezer Pennypincher and a ghostly apparition bent on revealing the truth? A wonderful mixture of delicious food and lots of fun!
Join us as we close our 50 Years of Live Theatre celebration with a murder mystery dinner and luncheon, where you put on your detective hats and help us solve the crime.
Before the show, we encourage you to view memories of past productions at your leisure, purchase tickets for our Penny Sale and perhaps put in a bid on a beautiful Jim Camelford print in our Silent Auction.
We are so excited for this time of celebration! Be sure to get your tickets soon. Tickets must be purchased by November 8 and seating is limited for each performance.
It’s Christmas Eve and the grand opening of “The Cooked Goose” Tavern. Your hosts, Agnes and Ebenezer Pennypincher, are on hand to make sure you enjoy your evening. However, there is someone else attending who has a different idea.
The DCT is thrilled to announce our November production of “The Diary of a Burning Woman”, a Murder Mystery dinner/theatre and luncheon/theatre, as the finishing piece of the celebration of our 50 Years of Live Theatre!
As well as wonderful food and show, each performance will have the added features of a Penny Sale (the winner of each item will be announced at the final show on Sunday), a Silent Auction of a Jim Camelford print at each performance, and 50 years of memories with a screening of pictures. We encourage you to come early to reminisce with us!

Marching our banner down Broad street for the Mudcat Festival
DCT enjoys the community in which we live and because of that we work to be part of it. We strive to be a valued part of our beautiful town’s commonwealth, work to be involved with other organizations and recognize the importance of contributing to community events.
In 2022 we made a humble effort at being part of the always fun Mudcat Parade by marching our banner and pulling a wagon full of candy, water, and business cards.
In 2023 we made a grand effort to launch a float full of famous rock icons and we thought it went quite well. However we do it, DCT is very proud to be part of this beautiful town and its marvellous celebrations.
Every year since COVID left us all home alone, DCT has produced a Christmas video. Please enjoy them even if it’s not the right time of year or a holiday you celebrate.
Wishing all our members, fans and supporters a happy & heathy holiday!
In the first year of Covid-19 restrictions we could not launch a production and started discussing the possibilities of doing Videoblogs. We put our corporation’s house in order and submitted an OTF grant under the Resilient Communities Fund. Then we sat back to wait. We’re not very good at waiting so we decided to give 1 small video a try just to say “Happy Holidays”. We missed our fans and families and just wanted to convey something happy and hopeful to the community. We were pretty happy with this video and in many ways it spurred us on with its whisperings of “Videoblog, Videoblog, wherefore art thou Videoblog?”
Happy Holidays from DCT
Nurses week arrived after we had news from the Ontario Trillium Fund that we had been awarded a grant but at that point it was still hush hush. We could not move forward with any plans until we got the go ahead. We have a great nurse on our board – Kathryn Stengel– and a another great nurse –Loretta Ward – who volunteers to photograph us, so we definitely appreciate nurses and wanted to add our shout out. Jordan dug his equipment out and made another short video from DCT.
