Theatre Panache presents...
Till We Meet Again

By David Langlois

Directed by Heather Markgraf Lowe...
“The play provides an important message of hope and understanding at a time when despair is again on the rise.”

Musical Direction by Marian Siminski

A wartime broadcast. Till We Meet Again revisits the days of WWII by recreating radio newscasts with song and dance numbers.

It is purely and simply delightful; A thoroughly enjoyable experience. A musical review worthy of your attention and support. A great way to escape and enjoy these timeless memorable classic songs. Even the most steadfast curmudgeon “I hate musical theatre!” advocate will enjoy this one. Before you can say ‘…and a one, and a two, and a three’ you’ll be humming and singing along with the charming cast who are persistently egging you on to join in. You’ll be surprised, as I was, at how many of the songs are familiar to the ear. Although the audience was filled with folks from the generation that originally heard these war time hits, and many baby boomers too, even a few of the ‘thirty-something’ audience knew some of them, probably having heard them played or sung by their parents and or grandparents or featured in films paying homage to this era in our history.

With 'Till We Meet Again' you will have the previlage of participating directly in what was the pre-television era of entertainment. A time when the audience were safe in the homes huddled around the radio after supper and actually listened in. The play is carefully mindful of the history of the period it covers (1939-1944) and is respectful to the memory of those who died and to those who survived, gently reminding us of the contribution that they made. You'll leave the theatre uplifted and in joyful good spirits, but you'll also leave the theatre reflecting on the sacrifice made by those who fought for our privileged freedoms that we still enjoy to this day.
