Our Story
In 2016, a passionate group of theatre lovers in the Comox Valley decided to roll the dice and launch a new local theatre company with a production of Guys and Dolls at the Sid Williams Theatre, which opened in March 2017. And let’s just say—Lady Luck was on our side! The production wasn’t just a success; it set the tone for what this company does best: smart, engaging, and entertaining theatre.
​
By 2018, we continued to showcase our flair for musical comedy with Once Upon a Mattress, and in 2019, we ventured into rock opera territory with a sold-out run of the classic Jesus Christ Superstar.

Then came 2020. Like everyone else in the theatre world, they faced the heartbreak of cancelling our run of Mamma Mia! just as we were about to open. But instead of sitting in the wings, and with the dedication of our board and volunteers, 3LDP got creative. Enter the Summer Series, an outdoor showcase of curated musical theatre themed performances at Filberg Park that brought local public performances back to life again.
With restriction lifts in 2022, we were busting out the fishnets and fun with The Rocky Horror Show. And we returned to the Sid in 2023, with our very first two-show year: Sondheim’s Into the Woods and the quirky comedy The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.
2024 was our biggest season yet, featuring the hilarious Monty Python’s Spamalot in the spring and the evocative, unforgettable Cabaret in the fall. We also added two exciting evenings of entertainment: Broadway After Dark at the Waverley in Cumberland—a cabaret-style night of burlesque and musical theatre—and our very first Broadway Holiday Gala & Karaoke Party at the Filberg Centre, featuring performances from alumni and guest artists, plus a chance for the community to join in the fun.
And here’s the big news: after years of waiting, we finally brought Mamma Mia! to the Sid Williams Theatre in March 2025. The music, the dancing, and the sheer joy of ABBA’s greatest hits had our sold-out audiences singing along night after night.
We would not be able to thrive without the energy of our volunteers, the support of our sponsors, and the unwavering belief in our community that theatre matters.
And we’re just getting started. We’re committed to continuing to surprise audiences with shows that make you laugh, think, and—hopefully—inspire you to get creative and involved, both onstage and behind the scenes!
