An Evening of Music at the Cellar

On May 3, some of our senior musicians treated a select group of parents and staff (those lucky enough to get a reservation that is!) to an intimate evening of music at the Cellar Jazz Club. Watch the highlights below, there are some great vocal solos!

Four of our Yorkies, Kathleen (Gr. 8), Vanessa (Gr. 9) , Laura (Gr.9) and Anna (Gr. 6) are performing this week in the musical “Oliver!”.

These girls are part of a local community musical theatre company for children in Grade 4 through 9, Encore Musical Theatre.  These dedicated young people rehearse every week from September through June in order to put on their full-length musical theatre production in June.

This year’s show promises to be entertaining, with a wonderful set and colourful period costumes. Familiar tunes such as “Food Glorious Food” and “Where is Love?” are what make “Oliver!” a favorite of adults and children alike.

If you would like to see the show, it plays this week, Thursday June 7 @ 7pm, Friday June 8 @ 7pm, and Saturday June 9 @ 2pm and 7pm at the Norman Rothstein Theatre at 41st and Oak.

More information about showtimes and tickets can be found at www.encoremusicaltheatre.org.
