Bob Le Pine as Dudley
Bob has been in theatre since high school. He's performed in over 40 productions over the years. Acting is his main love with comedies being his favorite venue. He's done almost every job that is necessary for a production from stagehand to director. Past shows with Vagabond include The Saloon Keepers Daughter 1991 and The Lady's Not For Burning 2001. He's worked with several other theater groups in the Lower Mainland. After an eight-year hiatus, Bob is happy to be back on the boards.

Richard Pare as Clues II
Richard has been very active in many community theatres since the early 1980’s having worked as an actor, director, set designer & builder, and board member. Playing Inspector Clues II is a treat for Richard as Clouseau is one of his favorite comedic characters. Richard also appeared on this stage in February, portraying Clayton Fry in Opening Night. He built the sets for Marion Bridge, Pirates of Penzance (at the Surrey Arts Centre ) and the set you see before you tonight. Richard will be directing our winter production of An Evening of Culture. It takes many people to make a production happen and we are glad to have Richard as part of our team

Mary Adams as Anna Sthesia
This is Mary’s first production with Vagabond Players after many years of “playing” with other companies around the Lower Mainland and in Salmon Arm.  Favourite past roles include Amanda in The Glass Menagerie, Miss Phallon in Chicks, Sally in Tally’s Folley, and Joyce in Penumbra. Mary is the recipient of several awards, and shares credit for her success with her support team of friends and family, both 2-footed and 4-footed. Thank you to Bob for casting her and the cast and crew for being so much fun.











Jass Takhar as Frank Hardley
Jass is your ordinary young student. At night she dons her cape and mask to fight crime and solve mysteries. During the day, she works away at her BFA in Theatre-performance at Simon Fraser University's Contemporary Arts Program. She is immensely pleased to be making her first (and hopefully not last!) appearance at the Bernie Legge Theatre with this mysteriously wonderful and talented troupe. She sends her thanks to Bob for allowing her to keep such Vagabonds as company! Lastly, she wishes all to pull out their magnifying glasses and enjoy the show!

Crystal Ann Bishop as Evangeline Everhardt
Crystal grew up on the stage of the Abbotsford Children’s Theatre starring in classics such as “The Wind in The Willows” and “The Greatest Christmas Pageant Ever” and eventually sleepwalked through film school working behind and in front of the camera. Crystal has a very busy day job working for a background agency and is thrilled to be able to catch up on her sleep in her first production with the Vagabond Players
