Theatre company announces 2024 season, with ‘thought-provoking’ pieces
It’s official. As of Nov. 1, 2023, Youth Entertaining Sudbury Theatre and Sudbury Theatre Centre are now legally one entity.
“At that membership meeting, we went over the successes of the year, and the amalgamation agreement that was created between both boards that we worked with a lawyer to draft. The membership unanimously accepted that agreement and then went into effect.”The merger means there will now only be one board of directors and one website. The company itself will be called YES Theatre, although the Sudbury Theatre Centre building will continue to be known as just that.
As for the 2024 season, Costantini said YES Theatre has already sold 500 subscriptions through its “Believers Pass,” which were passes sold before the company even announced its offerings for the upcoming year. Topics explored include social classes, poverty, incarceration, the pursuit of fame, mental health and a celebration of “some of the most poetic and complex music of our generation,” he said.
He said “1939” was originally commissioned and premiered at the Stratford Festival in Stratford, Ont. “We’re one of the first companies in the country to be doing it outside of that original work,” Costantini said. Next will be “Chicago,” which will run at Sudbury Theatre Centre July 9 to Aug. 15. “One of the best-selling Broadway musicals of all time,” this Tony award winning show features the beloved hits “All That Jazz”, and “Cell Block Tango.”
