Audiences looking for a fun, crowd-pleasing show are invited to attend LP Productions’ latest musical, Page to Stage, set to run from Friday, Nov. 29 until Sunday, Dec. 1 at Grace Tipling Hall in Shelburne. 

Production directors Kristen Gamache and Alison Port searched high and low for books and plays that were turned into musicals and put together a show with numerous Broadway and off-Broadway favourites, including Oklahoma, which was based on a play called Green Grow the Lilacs, Bruce from the book Matilda, and Right Before Your Eyes from James and the Giant Peach. Characters jump off of the pages and fill the auditorium with contagious energy and beautiful music. 

“We tried to find a mix of modern and old school musicals to please all audiences. You can expect a night of song after song with a choral setting and beautiful harmonies, some staged and some choreographed,” said Port.

The cast consists of a mix of children and adults, performing 24 iconic songs. One of Port’s favourite parts of the show is that some families are performing together for the first time. 

As she recalls, “It’s very special. I remember the first time I could perform with my daughters.” 

Years later, that lovely experience has continued for Port who will be performing in this show alongside her two daughters, Kristen and Danielle Gamache. 

Port’s daughter, Kristen Gamache, has directed the show with choreography, harmonies, and staging. 

Port says, “I’m proud of her dedication and hard work.”

Another person Port is proud of is Mia Jin, a high school student and long-time LP Productions cast member as well as a budding director with exceptional musical knowledge. 

“She is very focused and has helped Kristen lead this show,” said Port.

This demonstrates how influential opportunities in the arts can be, as Mia Jin’s experiences in LP Productions’ musical theatre have led her to wish to pursue a career in the field. 

Audiences are encouraged to come and support this group of local performers who wish to both move and entertain them with singing, dancing, and acting.

Page to Stage promises to be a lively, fun show that will entertain audiences of all ages. Performances run from Friday, Nov. 29 until Sunday, Dec. 1 at Grace Tipling Hall in Shelburne. 

Tickets are available through Eventbrite.
