Coming This Fall: Dating Games — A Night of Love, Laughter, and Lessons in Directing.
What do five disastrous dates and the next generation of theatre talent have in common?
Dating Games.
This November, Theatre Aezir proudly presents Dating Games by Garth Wingfield — five short plays, each telling a comically terrible first date story gone off the rails. But the real story is happening offstage: this is also a groundbreaking training initiative for emerging directors.
Each play will be helmed by a new voice in theatre, paired with a professional mentor to guide them through the full rehearsal-to-performance process. It’s hands-on, high-stakes, real-world learning — and it’s exactly what our region’s theatre scene needs.
Actors will be cast from the local community and sharpen their skills through workshops in movement, diction, and vocal production. Our creative team of professional stage and design artists will support every moment — from lights up to final bow.
Performances: November 6–16, 2025
Evenings at 8:00pm • Matinees at 4:00pm
First Baptist Church – 568 Richmond Street

This is more than a show. It’s a full-spectrum, community-rooted initiative combining mentorship, training, and performance — with a dash of heartbreak comedy.
