Chairlifts are a respite to the tired, a godsend to the lazy and a soapbox to the chatty. A ride up the mountain in silence is, well, a ride wasted. Steeping into a gondola or boarding a chair, you never know who you're going to meet or what they — or you — are going to say. Chairmates are the ultimate captive audience.

“Chairlifts are a bit like Airplane Seat Lottery,” says local writer and Chairlift Revue producer G.D. Maxwell. “You never know what kind of weirdo you're going to end up next to, what they're going to do or say and how you're going to react. There's no restroom to escape to, no steward to call for help but at least the ride ends quicker than a cross-country hop.”

The TELUS World Ski and Snowboard Festival's Chairlift Revue reunites talented writers with the over-the-top actors of Whistler's Short Skirt Theatre Company for an evening of original live theatre centred around conversations on a chairlift.

Local writers Cindy Filipenko, Lisa Richardson and Maxwell have joined forces with near-local writers Jules Older and Paul Malm to create memorable, if not always loveable, characters who share a passion for skiing and a fervent belief that chairlifts are considerably more than just a means of uphill travel.  

Join us at Rainbow Theatre on Monday, April 16 th for an evening of local live theatre. Be amused, puzzled, thrilled and shocked… but mostly be happy these were chairlifts you didn't wind up riding yourself. Or did you?
