THE LAWYER SHOW
One of Vancouver’s most exciting legal events and a valued tradition, The Lawyer Show is the signature fundraising event for Touchstone Theatre, a long-standing cultural institution and registered charity. Every spring, an ensemble of lawyers take to the boards to prove that acting and the practice of law have way too much in common. Lines are learned, songs are sung, audiences applaud – and fun and friendship abound along the way! Funds raised from The Lawyer Show support Touchstone Theatre’s award-winning artistic programming, outreach activities, and new play development initiatives.
Now in its 22st year, The Lawyer Show is an outstanding model of how the business + arts sector can work together for mutual benefit and has been replicated in several cities and professions. Historically, a fundraising tradition conducted in partnership with Carousel Theatre, and previous to that the Arts Club Theatre Company, Touchstone Theatre is now flying solo with the annual event and excited for the productions ahead.
