Parliament Past and Present Travelling Plays

Each summer, these fun and family-friendly performances take visitors around the grounds of the Legislative Assembly and even back through time! The Travelling Plays are a perfect complement to your guided tour of the Parliament Buildings, so plan to include this as part of your visit.

The Travelling Plays have ended for this summer. We look forward to seeing you again in 2023.

A House for Democracy

A young architect struggling for ideas travels through time and meets the notorious designer of the Parliament Buildings, Francis Mawson Rattenbury. Together, they learn all about what it means to build a House for Democracy!
