    Steeltown, USA, 1937. In the middle of the great depression, Marc Blitzstein writes his blistering attack on the wealth and power of a few held over the working class poor. The industrialist Mr. Mister owns the town and the people in it, until union leader Larry Foreman exposes the greed and corruption that lies just beneath the grit and grim. First banned for public performance, Biltzstein’s revelatory operatic tale is as relevant today as it was 80 years ago.

    Theatre Sheridan

    Trap Door - a musical thriller about disappearances, some that we notice, some that we don't.

    1919, Toronto the Good, where booze cans and brothels are hidden in places any God-fearing Methodist can find them: the Music Halls. Enter Teddy, a young woman in search of her sister, who went missing soon after moving to the city. Like her sister before her, she gets work at The Grand Opera and the owner is none other than the infamous real-life impresario Ambrose Small, who sells his theatre chain and vanishes from sight a week after she arrives, never to be heard from again. Where he went, perhaps only Teddy can say. But, then, where is she? Was she ever even there? Trap Door is a haunting true-crime story about a young woman's introduction to the decadence and brutality of city life in the early 20th century.

    How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, April 11 – 23, 2017

    Theatre Sheridan

    From the authors of Guys And Dolls comes one of the most delightfully irreverent musicals of all time, a satire of big business and all it holds sacred.

    Follow the rise of window-washer J. Pierrepont Finch, in his hilarious journey to chairman of the board at the World Wide Wicket Company, circa 1960, a ridiculous company where no one really knows what anyone else is doing. But when Finch meets his true love Rosemary, art mixes with business creating a combustible parody of the workings and morals of the business world and all the quirky characters in it.

    Book by Abe Burrows, Jack Weinstock and Willie Gilbert. Music and lyrics by Frank Loesser. Based upon the book by Shepherd Mead.

But when Corporal Eddie Birdlace meets Rose, she turns out to be more than he bargained for as she rewrites the rules of the game. A lesson in compassion, Dogfight begins as a rousing song and dance adventure and ends as an intimate story about finding the beauty and comfort of love.
