    The Chester Play House is situated in downtown Chester. It was built in 1938 as a movie theater…read more In 1968 it held its first live entertainment production. A lot has been done with the Playhouse over the years, but it remains as one of the greatest places to see a play or view live entertainment , The inside of the theatre has a balcony section as well as lower seating for 176 in total. The Playhouse has a very warm appeal, it takes you back for those who can remember ,to the old style theatres. There has been some great talent come through the doors and grace the stage. It is a first rate Playhouse.

    Well it was interesting to see how much I enjoyed this small little theatre. My Niece has become…read moreinterested in theatre and has enjoyed many plays at this particular Playhouse. This is a staple in Chester for the folks that live there. Great live entertainment though out the year. Visiting this small and cozy playhouse I have leaned that it used to me a old movie theatre that was done over to the Playhouse. The Staff are truly amazing with the work that they do with the kids to have them up and running for these productions. Cynthia I think is here name normally creates these plays and directs all these children. Hats off to her for all her hard work. Catch a play some night or in the summer get the venue as they do have local artist as well as different things going on through the summer.

    Came to Al Whittle Theatre last month while on my first ever trip to Nova Scotia…read more The Al Whittle Theatre was hosting films for the Devour Fest in Wolfville and what a treat it was. The venue was comfy, large enough for the festival yet intimate. The sound was great and the stage perfect for a cast discussion afterwards. The coffee shop attached, Just Us Cafe, is lovely and quite inviting with large glass/roll up bay doors that must be heavenly in the warmer summer months. A true gem in Wolfville! Loved it!

    Great theatre space with 160 pretty comfy seats, a movable lighting grid and good sound space with…read morebaffle control. CBC has recorded concerts here. It is used frequently as a movie theatre utilizing their digital projector with cinema server. Some presenters have put satellite into the theatre and are receiving live broadcasts from elsewhere on the planet (dance, theatre, music, etc). The Fundy Film Society is one of the main presenters and brings in cinema that you rarely see in the larger cities, let alone in a small burg like Wolfville. The fall Slow Food Film Festival, DEVOUR, is also presented here. And it is a venue for the Deep Roots Music Festival. And Summer Valley Theatre. And Night Kitchens plus various CD release events. Just Us Cafe is the front of the building and acts as the concession for the various events, although they do close early so there's no hanging around after the show for coffee-fuelled discussions; it's next door to Paddy's Pub for that. The theatre lobby does provide an intimate after-screening venue when needed, or a wine & cheese gathering, as it always has art displayed on its walls, doubling as Jack's Gallery. The space is fully decked out for the 21st century and is bringing "the world to Wolfville". The Acadia Cinema Coop is the building co-owner, with Just Us Cafe as another co-owner, plus hundreds of locals who have bought shares in the operation. They are the facilitators but do not present productions themselves, other than the occasional freebie or fundraiser (of which there are many here). A good venue for entertainment or town hall type meetings.

Tastings are free of their cider, wine and cellos and there's lots to try from dry to VERY sweet. While we prefer more dry ciders and wines, there are some interesting choices here for folks who aren't necessarily wine drinkers. If wine isn't really your thing, this is likely a good place to start your intro. Sweeter wines and ciders which will appeal to the novice. Their white wine was quite nice even though we're not white wine drinkers. It's very much like a Tidal Bay (Nova Scotia's flagship wine) and really good chilled. The rhubarb wine was surprisingly refreshing and nice on a hot summer day. The shop has lots of selection but the cider in plastic bottles was quite a turn off and in poor taste so we opted to have a glass each on the patio which has a great view but could use some work. Classier furniture and maybe some umbrellas would spruce the place up a bit. The staff was super friendly and the grounds are really peaceful. A little bonus is the owners have a decent selection of thrift items for a really great price throughout the shop. You can find some really unique dinner and glassware to bring home. Overall, this place has some really great potential but just needs a bit more attention. The yellow house on the hill is still a great spot to stop in and we'll be sure to check back again.
