Spring is definitely here.

All sure signs of Spring!
So when you get fed up trying to get all the garden chores and outdoor clean up done, the things you put off doing at the end of last season, check out what's on at the Terry Fox Theatre. There's a little bit of everything for everyone over the next two months, dance, music of all kinds, drama and musical theatre. So check our listings and support your local Port Coquitlam live theatre.

Seasoned and wise with middle age, bill’s songs are steeped in the Pop and R&B sensibility of the 60’s and 70’s.
