Power Play at West Village Theatre

Power Play at West Village Theatre in Calgary offers a sharp, hockey-infused spin on Shakespeare that delivers big laughs and bigger feelings. This Full Circle Theatre original follows scandal-prone defenseman Pete Ruff and no-nonsense Head of Communications Kate Baptista as a single viral moment forces them into a fake relationship. Set in the high-pressure world of professional hockey, the story blends media spin, sisterly tension, enemies-to-lovers chemistry and fast-paced banter. Audiences can expect irreverent comedy, heartfelt emotional turns and plenty of hockey nonsense, all inspired by The Taming of the Shrew. It is a lively, contemporary night out for theatregoers who love sharp dialogue, modern romance and playful twists on classic stories.
