In this witty and thought-provoking play, a charming devil arrives in the quiet village of Edmonton to bargain for the souls of its residents in exchange for their darkest wishes. Elizabeth should be his easiest target, having been labeled a “witch” and cast out by the town, but her soul is not so readily bought…

Time: 1600’s, but also now. 
Place: England, but also here.

Dark. Funny. Sharp.

A New Chapter for CLT! Strategic Plan 2026–2030

Courtenay Little Theatre has adopted its 2026–2030 Strategic Plan, and it’s an exciting step forward for CLT and our community!

The plan focuses on what matters most right now: securing a long-term home and performing space, expanding opportunities to make and experience theatre, growing training and skills, strengthening marketing and fundraising, and building a more diverse, engaged, and connected CLT community.

This plan comes to life through people getting involved — members, volunteers, artists, audiences, donors, and partners all playing a part.

There are many ways to join in! To learn more about the plan or to get involved with a committee, contact info@courtenaylittletheatre.com and help shape CLT’s future. To see an overview of Committees you can join, CLICK HERE to check out the invitation.
