Every Stratford Festival trip sponsored by HG begins with the bus ride. Benedict's bus drivers make the journey stress-free, and there's lots to look at along the way, including great views of Niagara Falls. Always expect a stop at the Canadian border to get out and stretch your legs and have your passport validated. 

Next stop: Stratford, the Festival City. You will stay in an accessible, well-appointed hotel in the heart of the city. The bus driver will take you to and from the festival theatre, door-to-door, where you will see top-notch plays from excellent seats. The theatres are within walking distance of the hotel and surrounding city shops and restaurants. There is much to see and do when you're not watching plays.

The weather in early October is generally sunny and temperate, conducive for a stroll on the walking paths along the Avon River. Make time to stop in one of the many confectionery shops that sells handmade goodies you can take back home to your loved ones as gifts. Or eat them all on your own.

Don't miss out on this truly extraordinary opportunity offered by Hamilton-Gibson.

The greatest masterpiece is human connection.

When a museum guard decides to touch a famous Rembrandt painting, a remarkable journey across the ages ensues. Spanning centuries of human experience, The Rembrandt explores the power of creative expression and the sacrifices we make in the pursuit of love and beauty, reminding us that though our beliefs may die with the sound of our voice, it’s the love we share—and the art that love inspires—that finds eternity. In rep with Red. (Due to language and subject matter this play is not appropriate for children.)

Two men. One studio. A clash of generations.

A play about the real artist Mark Rothko and his fictional assistant Ken. Viewed through the lens of Ken, we witness Rothko at the pinnacle of his creativity, but struggling through the creation of a series of large paintings, commissioned by New York's new Four Seasons Restaurant. The two men--older and younger--challenge each other to ask big questions about art: what it takes to create it and what its role should be in the world. Based on a series of real events, Red takes a compelling look at the ever-changing relationship between an artist and his creations. In rep with The Rembrandt.
