Broadway actor – and Walkerton native – Robert Creighton will be returning to his theatre roots this summer at the Drayton Festival Theatre.

Creighton will be starring in “Cagney!”, a spirited musical biography of silver-screen legend James Cagney, Hollywood’s iconic hoofer. Creighton also co-wrote the production, which will make its Canadian premiere at the Drayton Festival Theatre.

Creighton tells 570 News the best part of his return is starring in the show – but being home is a great bonus too.

“Cagney!” begins it’s run at Drayton tonight and will finish up July 24th.
