With a Song in My Heart at Nancy & Ed Jackman Performance Centre

Age is just a number - a musical theatre number - and Well Seasoned Productions (WSP) is delighted to announce the second of its two projects for 2025-26 funded by the Government of Canada’s New Horizons for Seniors Program. The physical, educational, and mental health benefits of music are well known; WSP takes it further, showcasing ageless talent and creating community across a demographic often forgotten.

WSP’s showcase production - “With a Song in My Heart” - runs for three performances November 14, 15, and 16 at the Nancy & Ed Jackman Performance Centre (877 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON). The show features eight established Canadian music theatre stars: Trish Adams (A Chorus Line; 42 nd Street), Lisa Atkinson (Sweeny Todd; Music of the Night), Mark Cassius (Ragtime; Cats; The Nylons), Michael Donald (Crazy for You; Disney’s Beauty and the Beast), Gretchen Helbig (Phantom of the Opera; The House of Martin Guerres), Janelle Hutchison (Les Misérables; Handmaiden’s Tale), Cassel Miles (Josiah; Fosse), Jeffrey Prentice (A Chorus Line; Cabaret). The show is produced and directed by Lesley Ballantyne (Dora Mavor Moore Award winner; past Artistic Director of the Muskoka Festival Theatre), Associate Director Mark Candler (Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, 42nd Street), with Musical Direction and wonderful arrangements by Kieren MacMillan (Musical of Musicals: The Musical, Fairy Tale Ending)
