Parliament Past and Present Travelling Plays
From Victoria Day to the end of August, guests can join the Parliamentary Players on an award-winning interactive theatrical experience that takes visitors around the outdoor grounds of the Legislative Assembly and even back through time! These free, thirty-minute travelling plays are a perfect complement to your guided tour of the Parliament Buildings, so plan to include this as part of your summer visit.
If you would like to join us for a performance, please arrive on the front driveway approximately 10 minutes prior to the show and speak with a member of the Tour Staff. Times are listed below.
Two unique shows are offered:
My Place in Politics
Riley Erskine is running for student council, but it is a big challenge. Luckily, Riley travels back to 1947 and meets inspiring people from British Columbia’s history. Will they help Riley build enough confidence to succeed? Find out in My Place in Politics!
A House for Democracy
A young architect struggling for ideas travels through time and meets the notorious designer of the Parliament Buildings, Francis Mawson Rattenbury. Together, they learn all about what it means to build a House for Democracy!
