Read Profile

Since its 1979 debut, this outstanding music and theatre (and musical theatre!) organisation has been offering performances of some of the great musical, operatic and dramatic gems of the past century. Still under the direction of the company's founder, Joe Cascone, the company presents virtually all facets of musical and dramatic performances. From the hits of Rodgers & Hammerstein and Lerner & Loewe, Stephen Sondheim and Jerry Herman to lesser-known masterpieces by unsung composers and playwrights, the company's high quality of production and performance has been their much-heralded standard. In 2026, the world-renowned play AMADEUS (the highly fictionalized lives of Mozart and Salieri and their fascinating musical and professional relationships) is being presented at the historic VideoCabaret Theatre from July 15 to 26.
