It’s been a full summer so far kicked off by Winnipeg Studio Theatre’s great trip to NYC as part of their bi-annual Broadway Bound adventure. the 5-day event included four Broadway shows, two Broadway song & dance workshops, bus, boat and walking tours as well as the obligatory shopping sprees. Highlights included tickets to Dear Evan Hanson (2017 Tony Award winner for best musical), our Canadian-made hit show Come From Away (we had an exclusive post-show chat with creators Irene Sankoff and David Hein plus full cast), Broadway Workshops with Mamie Parris and Kristy Cates and an incredible night of Fireworks and Celebrations for the 4th of July. Lots of high energy and inspirational moments had by all!

Heading to NYC for July long weekend with 45 StudioWorks students, parents and family members. It’s our bi-annual Broadway junket where we immerse ourselves in theatre, workshops and culture. On the agenda…Come From Away (the Canadian hit show), Dear Evan Hanson (Tony award for Best Musical), School of Rock (which WST is producing next year), Broadway workshops, walking tours and much more….Thanks to WST’s Artistic Director Kayla Gordon for planning such a knockout trip!!
