With live band Beatlejuice at the Stewart Park Festival!

“Lets all get up and dance to a song that was a hit before your parents were born.”**

Seriously!

Academy of Musical Theatre presents “Beatlemania” at the Stewart Park Festival on July 20th, 2019.

The hey day of the “Fab Four” may seem like ancient history to some, but for us they’re timeless. John, Paul, George, and Ringo produced some of the most beautiful songs ever and have inspired generations of other songwriters and performers, and now you can be part of their timeless magic.

Not only will we all get to sing and move to some of the greatest pop songs ever written – like Let it Be, I Wanna Hold Your Hand, A Hard Day’s Night, Yellow Submarine, and many more – but we’ll also accompanied by a live band! The acclaimed group, Beatlejuice, will be joining us during rehearsals and the final performance.

Join us as we celebrate the lives and music these musical icons from their early years until their final album.  The show follows the history of John, Paul, George and Ringo’s incredible partnership, and celebrates their prolific diversity of music and style, which still permeates our culture even today!

Classic Theatre Festival Presents Bernard Shaw’s “Pygmalion” from July 19th to August 12th, 2019 at the St. James Anglican Church Auditorium in Perth.

When a bombastic professor of dialects tries to turn a working-class flower girl into an upper-class lady, comic sparks fly in this most popular of Shaw’s plays (the basis for the musical My Fair Lady). Full of unforgettable Shavian characters – Henry Higgins, Eliza Doolittle, Colonel Pickering, and Alfred Doolittle, among others – it’s a legendary satire on class, gender, and particularly British mannerisms all served up with gentle and loving humour.

You will feel warmly welcomed and always entertained at the Classic Theatre Festival. Located in an intimate, air conditioned, wheelchair accessible 120-seat theatre at historic St. James Anglican Church, our focus is on professional quality with a community feel. Many audience members comment that our shows leave them with the same heartfelt sensation they get when watching the best of classic movies.

Stroll down memory lane and test your knowledge of Canadian theatre history with artifacts and press materials from the Stratford and Shaw Festivals, among many others. See if you can name the famous actor who appeared on a Canadian stage, and take in new historical themes each summer as part of this permanent lobby fixture.
