| Baccalieu Players, formed in 1996, are a group of enthusiastic volunteers based in Brigus, who
portray the joys and the tragedies of Newfoundland's inseparable links with the sea. Each summer they perform the "Steps Through Time Dramatized Walking Tour" which takes visitors on a 90-minute stroll through the town's narrow and winding streets, where, around every corner, another piece of the colourful past comes to life. Evenings, they perform a comic dinner theatre - "A Royal Shag-up." Three days a week they perform single-character vignettes about the people of Brigus and Captain Bob Bartlett's Arctic adventures "Live on the Lawn" at Hawthorne Cottage National Historic Site. In addition, they perform "Saltwater Moon," the award winning Canadian play by David French, who was born in Coley's Point.
