Incredible talent and stage design in my fav intimate theatre. The performance was so interesting and exciting it had us on the edge of our seats. It is a memorable show that goes well beyond its famous line: you can’t handle the truth. Tom Cruise, you gotta see your new competition.

The St. Jacobs Schoolhouse Theatre is located in the heart of the old town, adjacent to Canada's original Home Hardware Store and just steps away from the bustling main street. With unique gift shops, excellent restaurants, museums and galleries, as well as quaint country inns and B&Bs, the village of St. Jacobs is the perfect spot to spend a few days.Set in a renovated 1867 village schoolhouse, this professional theatre is high on charm. With only 100 seats and remarkable acoustics, the intimate atmosphere lends itself to cabaret-style performances, where you can enjoy a beverage at your table that's positioned just a few feet from the stage.

We spent an hour in this small but very informative and interactive museum. Even though we only live an hour away, we found we learned so much about the Mennonites (locally and world-wide) and have a new appreciation for their way of life and beliefs.
