Join us for our 2nd Annual World Theatre Day Celebration at The Astor Theatre! A cast of 41 youth will be performing a cabaret style theatrical production written by Ashley-Rose Goodwin and her Playwriting Posse from Mersey Rose Theatre Company!
The show is called “The Tale of Gertrude’s Tail” and is a dramatic story of self-discovery based on the Seussical musical character Gertrude McFuzz. The storyline is about the self-discovery Gertrude experiences as she follows a magical map, travelling through the Lands of Broadway to find the Great Dr. Dake! With 14 scenes of music from shows like Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, Mamma Mia, The Addams Family, Matilda, Oliver, and much, much more, you will find yourself easily entertained by this adorable cast, ranging in age from 4-15!
What theatrical antics will occur when Gertrude travels through the Lands of Broadway? What does Dr. Dake have that Gertrude so desperately wants? Experience this super musically adventurous tale about a tail on Saturday March 25th at 7pm & Sunday March 26th at 2pm!

Quote the Raven, consisting of Jordan Coaker and Kirsten Rodden-Clarke have been performing together for over a decade. The pair got their start in the small bars and pubs around St. John’s and in the past few years have rapidly grown to a household name around Canada and are steadily growing their clout on an international level. The dynamic duo have a harmonious blend that’s incomparable; it’s like the blending of two voices into one, while their Americana meets east coast songwriting and stage dynamic are irresistibly charming. Their sophomore album titled Can’t Hold the Light, an album that delves into the lives of working musicians won the 2022 ECMA for Contemporary Roots album of the year and has been nominated for two Canadian Folk Music Awards. It’s clear to see that Quote the Raven are on an upward trajectory with no slowing down in sight.
Kristen Martell’s hazy folk pop songs embrace life’s challenges and quiet moments of beauty. With gentle arrangements, haunting harmonies and insightful messages her songs are the perfect soundtrack to ease your melancholy. With an ECMA nomination and three Music Nova Scotia award nominations since her return to music in 2020, she is making a name for herself in the East Coast music scene and beyond. Her latest album ‘Every Season‘ is her most confident, self-assured and emotionally compelling work to date.
