- Of course, last week it was announced that The Artery‘s building was “structurally unsound” and they would be forced to close their doors at the end of March. The lack of available space for the arts in Edmonton is nothing new, but I’ll add my condolences to those that have already been expressed. The Artery is an institution in Edmonton’s arts scene and its loss will be felt by everyone who has ever entered through the slightly scary back-street entrance into its “rustic” confines, where you can just tell how much has been experienced in that building. I hear The Artery will be looking to open up in another space, but in the meantime they’ve got their typical busy line-up for March.
Where did you see those dates for The Contract? I’m interested in seeing it, but I thought it was just next week during Expanse.

Hey there, Nancy sent me a press release with those dates. I’ll revisit it tonight to see if I can find where to purchase tickets for the performance in advance of Expanse.

Hello, it looks like everything is directing to the Fringe Theatre Adventures website. I know that the pre-Expanse performances aren’t for sale on their online system, but perhaps if you call the box office at 780-409-1910, you can buy tickets that way.
