The Shows
The Love Life of Electro Written & Directed by Zoe Bechtold
When slightly-magnetic super criminal Electro gets dumped in jail, the least he expects is some popularity. That's all part of being in the famous after all. What he never foresaw was joke-wielding journalist Nelly, who instead of asking after the normal boring stuff (secret identity, backstory, etc.) asks after the one thing he's never wanted to share (except with those involved) and the one thing she knows everyone has: a love life. And in the case of Electro, it's seriously ridiculous.
Home To McMillen Written & Directed by Abby Hunter
Lacey and Paul have lived on McMillen drive their whole lives, and been best friends almost as long, but a simple rift in ideologies can do a lot to a relationship. Set at the height of the U.S. involvement in Vietnam, two young, vital forces have to confront the fact the most important person in their lives doesn't share the fundamental values that make them who they are. Home to McMillen, a Vietnam era piece that isn't really about Vietnam at all.
Life Written & Directed by Noah Baker and co-written by Catrina Bowles
There is a light at the end of the tunnel that we greet with open arms; an angel that guides us towards something more. In our final moments that light becomes blinding. As a young woman lies on her deathbed, she sees this light, this angel, and he may not be quite as angelic as he seems.
Unpaid Programming Directed & Facilitated by Zach Friesen & Angel Lo
Tired of watching those same-old, boring paid programming ads on TV? Well this show is anything but boring! Watch as 6 improvisers become contestants in a Big-Brother/Survivor type competition for the chance to win... an incredible awesome prize to be revealed at the show! Who will emerge victorious? YOU decide in this fast paced improvised show.
Centre Street Written & Directed by Mari Wilson
The rebellion is as strong as their hearts, beating as one. When a pair of twins find each other on separate sides of a city divided by wealth class, they must journey down a dangerous path to right the wrong. In this heart-pumping drama, Centre Street is sure to leave you thinking about the power of family, and how, no matter what, we all have the power of free will. Above all, this show will leave you wondering if it is who we are as an individual, or what we are a part of, that defines where we belong in the labyrinth of life.
Any Night By Daniel Arnold & Medina Hahn Directed by Robert Morrison
When Anna, an unnerved modern dancer moves into a basement suit, romance blooms with Patrick, her helpful neighbour from above. As their relationship intensifies, so do her strange and violent night behaviours. In this Canadian romantic-thriller, audiences will be on razors edge as dreams and reality blur and sanity is questioned. Daniel Arnold and Medina Hahns play comes to CYPT after critically acclaimed performances in New York, Toronto, Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary.

The Problably True (but also not) Adventures of the Imaginary Book Club By our 2018 Story Theatre Cast Directed by Meredith Johnson and Amy Sawka
