DRIVEN TO SCORE: Celebrating Canadian Musical Composers


Toronto, ON - Following their critically acclaimed inaugural concert in May 2011, Theatre 20, Toronto's newest musical theatre company, takes the stage June 20 with DRIVEN TO SCORE, the second in their three-part concert series at the Panasonic Theatre.

In keeping with their three-part mandate of celebration, creation and education of story-driven musical theatre, DRIVEN TO SCORE is an intimate celebration of Canadian composers, featuring the work of Leslie Arden, Jonathan Monro and David Warrack.

Directed by Alisa Palmer and hosted by Ann-Marie MacDonald, DRIVEN TO SCORE brings together an incredible lineup of Theatre 20 Founding Artists - Louise Pitre (Mamma Mia!), Ma-Anne Dionisio (Miss Saigon) and David Keeley (Rock of Ages) - joined by Sterling Jarvis, Alana Bridgewater and Yvan Pednault, six incomparable Canadian musical actors, for one night only at the Panasonic Theatre. Special appearances by Adam Brazier and the Theatre 20 Emerging Artist Choir.

Tickets are $59 and $69 and are available in person at the Panasonic Box Office, through TicketKing by phone at 416-872-1212 (1-800-461-3333) or online at TicketKing.com.https://web.ticketking.com/TK/default.asp

Theatre 20's journey started with a packed house and rave reviews for THE STORY BEGINS: Celebrating Songs from Story-driven Musicals. Join us on June 20 for the next night of musical theatre celebration, DRIVEN TO SCORE: Celebrating Canadian Musical Composers.

All concert series profits will benefit Theatre 20's future productions.
