Our play never did 'play' for our community. Locals were able to see it only 1 time, and that was at this festival. That was not all that unusual in the early days of Cranbrook Community Theatre.
With wins at this regional festival, CCT's Ex-Miss Cooper Queen on a Set of Pills went on to compete at the 1970 BC Drama Association Finals in Vernon shortly thereafter. Please go to that page to learn more.
