The Stratford Festival will be celebrating the life of Bill Needles next month. There’s going to be a memorial service for the late actor.
Needles, who died in January at the age of 97, was a regular member of the Festival company. He had 47 seasons in Stratford under his belt.
Speakers at the memorial service will include Colm Feore and Geraint Wyn Davies. It’s happening on April 17th at the Festival Theatre at 2:00pm.
On top of that the Festival’s 2016 production of As You Like It will be dedicated to Needles’ memory.
