Thousands of students attend productions at the Sudbury Theatre Centre each year, where they experience the best of professional theatre at Northern Ontario’s premier performance facility.
We offer a variety of programming suitable for elementary and secondary school audiences that will excite and engage students and educators alike. Each production tells a story that will resonate with children and/or youth – some also feature student actors, or adults playing youthful characters that your students will easily identify with.
All productions present opportunities for classroom discussion and lesson tie-ins, offering themes and content to match curriculum material and character education topics.
CHOIR! – May 2025
CHOIR! is a semi-autobiographical musical comedy written by Anika Johnson and Barbara Johnston, the same team who wrote last season’s Young Company production ONE SMALL STEP.
Long before ‘Glee’ and ‘American Idol,’ there were Community Youth Choirs across the land where young singers gathered because they loved to sing, loved each other, or “their mother made them do it!” CHOIR! is a musical comedy that follows the Tierce de Picardie Children’s Chorus (TDPCC) through a year of the ups and downs of their lives and their music under the exacting baton of their intrepid leader Mary Dean. Headed for the bright lights of the big choir competition in Sudbury, they dream of choir glory but find a bigger prize along the way.
