Summary: In March of 2017, Russell Bowers did a Daybreak@Night show in Cold Lake, and he chatted with Craig Conechny, owner of Beantrees Cafe, as well as Teresa Patton, a theatre professional. They both wanted to establish a downtown theatre in Cold Lake, creating a venue for plays, music and more. Well, fast forward to the summer of 2018 and the Grand Parlour theatre is a reality. August 10-12, it will host The Verge Arts Fesitval, featuring plays, live music, and other Cold Lake creators. You can get more info about tickets and shows by going to grandparlour.ca. Russell returned to Cold Lake in July and caught up with Craig Conechny to found out more about how the Grand Parlour theatre came to life.
