Young People Theatre: Here are the details: The Vicar of Dibley Apr 23 to Apr 25, Jubilee United Church Theatre Columbus has a mandate to "create, through a collaborative process, new and original Canadian plays that combine a physical theatre tradition with social and personal issues relevant to our time and place." The company has collaborated with local church ministers in the city for a special fundraising show to benefit its Play Development Program, according to CBC. The show is adapted from the hit BBC show about the kerfuffle caused by a new female vicar in a small British town. There are many stage productions taking place in venues across the city -- from community theatre in the church to a play about cyber-bullying at Young People Theatre. For more information on the performance, check out the Theatre Columbus website. This year festival looks at issues of gender and violences, and the expectations around the role of women in society.
