As well as the Season package, some returning favourites and new adventures await those looking for new artistic works to explore, two of which we've already taken a sneak peek at.

Next week it's the first of what may very well become a Halloween tradition, as the Lester Centre features the popular film version of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, inviting patrons to dress up in costume and bring the many props that make the Rocky Horror experience the thing of manic fandom in other communities.

The annual review of local talent known as Prince Rupert's Got Talent is set for November 10th, with auditions to take place towards the end of the month.

Also set to come this year, the parade of Christmas concerts from School District 52 and Annunciation , as well the latest production from the Charles Hays Theatre Program of 9 to 5.

Prince Rupert's annual community fundraising Rotary Auction will also make the Lester Centre the host venue, with the Lester Stage serving as the studio for the popular event.

As the list of events expands you can learn more of the upcoming events from the Lester Centre website, as well the Lester Centre Facebook page and twitter feed.
