Cornwall Concert Series

The fall season for the Cornwall Concert Series wraps up on Saturday, November 17 with Any Dream Will Do: The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber.

The show was conceived and co-produced by Adrian Marchuk, who starred as Frankie Valli in the Toronto and Las Vegas productions of Jersey Boys. Told through story and song, and brought to life by musical theatre performers from Stratford, Toronto, and Broadway, the show touches on more than 30 of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s hit songs from Joseph, Evita, Cats, The Phantom of the Opera, Sunset Boulevard and more. Adrian was originally scheduled to also perform in this eight city tour of the show, but has had to step back. Stewart Adam McKensy will be joining the performance. Stewart is fresh off performing in Adrian’s newest show, A Whole New World, which just premiered last month in Collingwood. Stewart has played Lola/Angel in Kinky Boots (Mirvish) and The Beast in Beauty and the Beast, Young People’s Theatre (Toronto).

The cast also includes Thom Allison , who can be seen as Pree in the hit series, Killjoys, on Space Channel/Syfy Network. On Broadway Tom’s credits include Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, the original Canadian companies: Miss Saigon, The Who’s Tommy and Rent. Stratford Festival: Romeo and Juliet, The King and I, Into the Woods. Shaw Festival: Ragtime and A Little Night Music.

Alana Hibbert is thrilled to be returning to Any Dream Will Do.

Other favourite credits include: Carousel, The Sound of Music (Stratford Festival); Ragtime, Guys and Dolls, Trouble in Tahiti, Major Barbara and The Mountaintop (Shaw Festival).
