Sarnia is hosting the Western Ontario Drama League Festival this week. Five plays will be performed at the Imperial Theatre beginning Monday through Saturday March 17. The top production advances to the Theatre Ontario Festival that begins May 16 in London. Theatre Sarnia does not have an entry this year because it's hosting the event for the first time in six years. Plays from theatrical groups in Guelph, Kitchener-Waterloo, Aylmer, Elmira and Paris will be on stage. Tickets cost $25 or $110 for all five and are available at the Theatre Box Office or on line at www.imperialtheatre.net
