The Darktown Strutters' Ball
The song The Darktown Strutters' Ball was the earliest jazz recording ever made, and it was written by Shelton Brooks, an Afro-Canadian who has the music industry's first superstar.
This compelling new musical will take you back to the early days of music halls and vaudeville, days that have inspired every musician right up to, and including, those of today.
This Strutters' Ball is for people just like you, people who like to strut their stuff... and it'll be a party as ever a party could be!

What is Theatre for Young Audiences?
We believe theatre is a powerful tool. It dramatizes and contextualizes the world. It invites us to walk in other’s shoes; see the world through their eyes.
All of our Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA) shows are grounded in the Ontario curriculum; they teach, through theatre.
Bonus: we hire educators to create study packages, so your classroom can get the most out of the experience.
Theatre doesn’t have to break the bank.
