Celebrations Dinner Theatre presents The Office: A Rock Parody!
Who would have ever guessed that the TV world would be so enthralled and entertained with the goings on at small paper company office. A simple ordinary office with average people like Jim and Pam with their little flirtations… and Michael with his terrible staff meetings… and Dwight with his, ah… crossbow? Okay so maybe not ordinary!
Join us at Celebrations Dinner Theatre when we put our music parody spin on a modern TV classic,
The Office: A Pop Rock Parody.

MEGAN PHILLIPS as Pam
Vancouver based Megan Phillips is the best friend you didn’t know you needed. A Musical Theatre Performance Master from Mountview Academy; Megan tours solo shows, standup, and sketch comedy. Her musical People Suck (Ed Mirvish Entrepreneurial Award, Patron’s Pick) has been produced by Salty Theatre in Melbourne, AUS and Second City Theatricals in Chicago. She’s a member of NYC-based sketch team GMAFS, and you may recognize her from that YouTube commercial. She is SO stoked to play the role everyone tells her she looks like! @MegNatPhil
Len Harvey as Dwight
Len Harvey is eager to be doing his very first takeover of a role for Celebrations. In over thirty years of performances for the company Len has never stepped into a role part way along the journey, so there really are ways for old dogs to have first-time experiences. You’d be forgiven for not recognizing Len without the big beard he has worn for Star Warz, The Summer of 69, The Hangover and Hard Days Knights. You’d have to go all the way back to 2012 and Ghostbusted to have seen his bare face, or even 2003 for The Rock & Roll Falsettos. Or perhaps you too have been with the company as long as Len has and you saw Elvis and The Beach Bums in 1991? Or Knaughty Knights, Hot Summer Nights, I Dream of Jimmy, There’s No Life Like it, or even Ranchers And Rustlers 2 in any of the four theatres Len has played during the history of Celebrations in Winnipeg? New and old friends alike please enjoy The Office and don’t take Dwight too seriously. He takes himself seriously enough for everyone.
KYLE GRUNINGER as Michael
Most recent credits include: Decades (New West Theatre), Bryan Adams in Summer of ‘69 (Celebrations Dinner Theatre), lead singer for Carnival Cruise Lines and starring as ‘Khashoggi’ in the North American touring production of We Will Rock You the Queen Musical (Annerin Productions). Most famously known for being the front man of international touring rock band “Incura”, his unique vocal abilities have brought him opportunities to work with multi-platinum producers Arnold Lanni (Our Lady Peace), Brian Howes (Nickelback) and more. Kyle has released several albums and music videos via Coalition/Warner Music Canada, available on all major streaming services.
Kat Fullerton as Linda
Kat loves Winnipeg so much she decided to stay for another show! She just appeared as “Luci” in Heartbreak Hotel and is thrilled to be joining her pals as “Linda” in The Office. You may also remember her as Rhonda in “Summer of ’69” or as Della in “Old Time Rock and Roll”. If your memory is longer you may also recall her roles as Gloria in “Modern Family Vacation” and Lady Gaga/The Devil in “Night at the Museum of Country Music”. Kat is also an award-winning Marilyn Monroe impersonator and you can follow her on all the socials as “Almost Marilyn”. She can also be seen in the Hallmark movies “Planning For Joy” and “A Great North Christmas”, which was filmed right in her hometown of Prince George, BC! She is so grateful to be back with her Celebrations family and sends all her love back home to Mum and the dogs.
GILLIAN MOON as Angela
Gillian is thrilled to be returning to the Celebrations stage after a brief hiatus to run away with the circus. As a multidisciplinary artist, Gillian has toured North America with Koba Entertainment, the Little Red Ball Company, and Jubilations/ Celebrations. She can also often be seen performing with Alberta troupes – Three Left Feet and the Rocky Mountain Acrobats. Enjoy the show!
