A strong earthy, deep-rooted loving red to represent the parents, and a fresh, soft new-born green to represent the young children (the subtle sage green of Kamloops hills). The red leaves of the logo are the parents: a couple, a mother (pregnant as shown by the 'bump' on the leaf) and a single parent. The children are between them and together the entire Kamloops “family' is centred/grounded by one focal point—family living and unity. As a team they present an exuberant yet simple flower... which speaks to a harmonious life and what true beauty really is all about—our relationships with eachother. The logo also evokes a sense of movement... the action and activity of a family in motion, “doing' things together.

Ye Olde Courthouse Players Presents…
Two-Bite Bard – Shakespeare…Kid Sized!

The Kamloops Arts Council has brought back its’ hugely successful Children’s Theatre Program. Katrina Mayne returns as director joined by Simon Walter, Randi Edmundson and Dan Erickson as actors. This year the students have been given the challenge of producing Shakespeare themed children’s plays; for their first production they have chosen to present an adaptation of The Tempest. No worries, although the play is Shakespearean in nature, it has been “kid-sized”! What a wonderful way to introduce your children (maybe even yourself) to Shakespeare. Bring the entire family to Riverside Park, Wednesday to Saturday, from July 2nd to August 15th. The production runs at 1pm and 3pm.

*Please note, there will be no 3pm performance on Thursdays as the Ye Olde Courthouse Players will be busy hosting Theatre Workshops at the Bizarre Bazaar at the Old Courthouse Cultural Centre from 4PM to 6PM. Come and meet the actors and join them in theatre games and theatre-oriented crafts.
