Theatre 20 is “an artist-led, story-driven company” devoted to the development of new Canadian musical theatre works. Their Driven to Score: Celebrating Canadian Musical Composers concert promised to be a music-filled evening showcasing some of the biggest and best names in the Canadian theatre scene.
Directed by Alisa Palmer, one of our best directors, and hosted by Ann-Marie MacDonald, one of our greatest playwrights and performers, the showcase offered a veritable who’s-who of Canadian theatre. The roster of big-name performers was led by Adam Brazier (We Will Rock You), Theatre 20’s Artistic Director, and Bob Foster (currently working on Billy Elliot), the show’s Musical Director. Other founding members who performed included Ma-Anne Dionisio (Miss Saigon) and Louise Pitre (Mamma Mia!).
