The company has performed, amongst others, Chisholm's To Capture Light, Alan Bennett's Talking Heads, and an all-woman production of Twelfth Night (2009).

In 2008, Chisholm performed in Christian Murray's play, Bone Boy, as the mother of a child brought to life from a tooth.

In 2010, Chisholm played the emergency medical technician, Eleanor Carr, in the SyFy-produced TV series Haven and she also appeared in the Canadian thriller The Corridor.

Chisholm directed Lauchie, Liza and Rory by Sheldon Currie in 2010 for the Eastern Front Theatre and in 2011 for the Mulgrave Road Theatre, in association with Frankie Productions at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa. She also performed in Caryl Churchill's Top Girls for the LunaSea Theatre, as well as in Michel Nadeau's And Slowly Beauty ... playing the waitress Anita.
