Titled “Catherine O’Hara: Simply the Best,” the series begins March 4 — O’Hara’s birthday — and continues on select Wednesdays through April at the Cultural Center’s Historic Camelot Theatre. The tribute follows the recent loss of the beloved comedy icon and offers fans an opportunity to celebrate her enduring impact on screen.

Each evening will begin with curated highlights from Schitt’s Creek, followed by a feature film showcasing one of O’Hara’s standout performances. The screening schedule includes:

March 4 — Best in Show
March 18 — Beetlejuice
April 1 — After Hours
April 15 — Waiting for Guffman

Doors open at 6 p.m. with a curated pre-show, Schitt’s Creek highlights begin at 6:30 p.m., and the featured film starts at 7 p.m.

Series programmer Lauren Wolfer says the tribute is meant to bring the community together to celebrate O’Hara’s legacy and the characters audiences continue to love.
