A partnership with Sacred Heart Downtown and Mis en Place Catering.
Be transported to the beautiful world of Broadway, all abuzz and brimming with your favourite showstoppers! With incredible talent and incomparable cuisine, an evening sure to leave you thoroughly razzled and dazzled!
**FOR THE FIRST TIME - NO DINNER ALL SHOW**
We will be offering a NO DINNER ALL SHOW performance of this production. What does this mean? On August 6th we will present this production at a lower price point. The bar will still be open but dinner will not be served. The perfect way to catch the show on a budget, or revisit it without the cost of the meal (although we can all agree that meal is VERY good).
If you loved Best of Broadway, you'll fall head over heels again for BACK to Broadway! Featuring an incredible cast of local talent and the glitz and glam of Sacred Heart Downtown.
PLUS: Enjoy an enhanced experience with Sacred Heart Downtown's new camera and video screen display! Bigger and brighter for your viewing pleasure.
