Here’s 5 things to do in and around Victoria on Thursday, November 28th:
Rat Academy at Intrepid Theatre
After numerous sold out runs across Alberta and BC, the production Rat Academy returns for a special showing in Victoria!
The story follows the last rats in Alberta, Fingers and Shrimp, as they learn how to survive in a world where everyone hates them.
Inspired by Alberta’s 1950s anti-rat propaganda, this physical comedy duo is unlike any other!
Tickets are $25 for general admission, or $10 as a part of their ‘Pay-What-You-Ten’ program.
