Attending a production at 4th Line Theatre is an extraordinary experience. We stage our plays outdoors; the barns of the old Winslow Farm our backdrop, the setting summer sun our stage light, and the surrounding meadows our expanse of theatre. Located just outside of the small Ontario town of Millbrook -- the setting alone is more than worth the price of admission.

| 4th Line Theatre Announces it's 2010 Season ! |
4th Line Theatre's is proud and excited to announce the return of The Right Road to Pontypool and the world premiere of Eldorado Town: The Port Hope Play.
From the radium craze of the 1930s to the beginnings of the Cold War, Eldorado Town: The Port Hope Play examines how a small Ontario town played a significant role in ending WW II and in the coming of the nuclear age. Playwright Charles Hayter, an oncologist as well as a playwright, sets his play between 1930 and 1946 and tells the story of the two brothers who founded Eldorado Mining and Refining. But it wasn’t until a use was found for the by-product of radium refining – uranium - that the world was changed forever. Eldorado had and continues to have a profound impact on the town and residents of Port Hope today. Eldorado Town: The Port Hope Play is scheduled for July of 2010 with previews on June 29 and 30th and running Mondays to Saturdays until closing on July 24.
The wildly successful The Right Road to Pontypool returns to the Winslow farm for another season. This loving chronicle of one man’s sun kissed dream for Toronto’s working class Jews in the early 1900s became a sold-out audience favourite and had the critics calling it “remarkable”, “magnificent” and saying it “should not be missed”. In its heyday, Pontypool, in the heart of Protestant southern Ontario, was a summer haven for thousands of Jewish immigrants. Not only was last season’s production sold out, but it attracted theatre-goers from across the Ontario and, perhaps not surprisingly, many people who spent their summers in Pontypool. The Right Road to Pontypool will run Monday to Saturday with previews August 2 and 3rd until August 28.
