The West Side Performing Arts Cooperative is pleased to present “The Rèiteach”, a play written by Brenda MacLennan-Dunphy, sponsored by KitchenFest! The Rèiteach tells the story of a traditional Scottish wedding rite and the comedy that ensues in a small Cape Breton village on the night the wedding banns are announced. The play is inspired by a story by Jim St. Clair entitled, “The Double Elopement Story”, written in The Cape Breton Magazine in 1973. A musical comedy sure to keep you laughing and toe tapping with a few of the islands best musicians. The show will be jointly produced and directed by Diane Mouland and Janet Burbidge.
