[Candrama] National Canadian Film Day & free screenings of Canadian theatre on film

[Michael Wallace]

Wednesday April 15, 2026 is National Canadian Film Day.

Last year was the first year the museum participated – and we were delighted by the success of screening the film BILLY BISHOP GOES TO WAR – with a special introduction and Q&A afterwards by Eric Peterson who joined us in person.

There is some great “theatre on film” as part of this year’s film collection. Check it out:
