CAROUSEL: A Concert will run from Friday September 1, 2023 to Sunday September 3, 2023. This production will take place on the Outdoor Stage at The Gaslight District.  
This classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical will feature performers from Penny and Pound Theatre Productions and The Cambridge Symphony Orchestra.

CAROUSEL: A Concert will include timeless songs such as "You'll Never Walk Alone," "If I Loved You," and "June Is Bustin' Out All Over." These songs not only serve as powerful vehicles for character development but also linger in the minds of audiences long after the show is over.

Penny & Pound Theatre Productions bring to life the classic musical "Carousel." With a passion for the arts and an unwavering commitment to excellence, this dynamic group of performers is thrilled to captivate audiences with their rendition of this timeless tale.

Following a story of doomed love, redemption, and the enduring human spirit, "Carousel" transports the audience to a world where emotions run deep and melodies linger in the heart. The cast and crew have poured their dedication into every detail, from the lavish costumes to the meticulously crafted choreography, ensuring that every aspect of the production resonates with the essence of the story. Carousel is performed in partnership with members of The Cambridge Symphony Orchestra, and conducted by orchestra artistic director Sabatino Vacca.

Getting to know the Gaslight District and Grand Opening Weekend Info




As mentioned in an earlier post, Friday night I was at the opening of A Few Good Men at the Hamilton Family Theatre in Cambridge.  I went early to get a parking spot at the theatre.  When I got out of my car I could hear music playing so I headed toward Foundry Tavern in The Gaslight District and as I got closer I knew the voice singing right away.  It was my friend Juynet singing with The Turk and the Hobbits. They were playing outdoors in the Big Screen area of The Gaslight District.  Watch the video below to see the view



Next thing you know the Toronto Blue Jays were on the screen.



It is really a fun place to be!

The Gaslight District is a new kind of 'Infrastructure for the human spirit' that helps people freely play in public in ways that start to define an inclusive community identity. 


It was a great preview of what is to come this month for The Gaslight District's Grand Opening.

Grand Opening Weekend at The Gaslight District

I have been including Big Screen Thursdays at The Gaslight District as part of the ongoing Thursday events in my monthly list, but I felt the Grand Opening Weekend deserved a post too!

The Grand Opening Weekend is running July 28-30, 2023 with FREE CONCERTS on Friday and Saturday.

Each concert is headlined by a well-known band,  Friday night BIG WRECK is the headliner and Saturday WALK OFF THE EARTH headlines the show.


There are other events throughout the weekend as well you can find all the info at https://www.gaslightdistrict.ca
