Every year for 26 years, Rossland’s unique theatre group has been entertaining visitors and locals with their live performances. In 1987, a small group of theatre enthusiasts started a musical revue based on Rossland history.

The show was embellished with local lore, old time tunes and real Can-Can dancers from the Boomtown Garter Girls. Two and a half decades later, the Rossland Gold Fever Follies are still going strong with original stories from Rossland’s rich gold mining history.

While artistic licence is often in play, many of the characters are based on real people from Rossland’s past.

This live musical theatre show, held in the restored 1898 Miners’ Hall, only runs for two months. Even so, it takes all year to plan and organize. This year’s play is sure to entertain adults and children alike.
