Disco Cirque 

Enter the fantasy of the discotheque where the driving beat, lush strings and Latin razzmatazz are hypnotic. This new Canadian musical theatre production takes disco to the height of glamour, decadence and dancing with the added sparkle of contemporary circus.

Silks, rings and trapeze compete with disco balls, light shows and catwalks. Daring and dangerous, Disco Cirque is shiny, glittery surfaces, strobe lights, DJ‘s and divas! Featuring the music of Donna Summer, Cher, KC & the Sunshine Band and more!

The fantasy of the discotheque, the daring of the modern circus!

White Christmas

Neptune Theatre - Halifax Nova Scotia - Nov 27-06 to Jan 13-07

White Christmas is a story most of us are familiar with. As many of you may already know, the movie starring Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, and Rosemary Clooney was the top grossing film of 1954. Today it is the fifth most rented musical of all time and the title song was for many years the best selling single in music history.

Craig is so pleased to be performing for the first time here in Halifax. Thank you Mom, Dad, and Shawn for your continuous support. Enjoy the show!

Music and Lyrics by George and Ira Gershwin

We close our 30th Mainstage season with George and Ira Gershwin's hilariously funny and theatrical Crazy for You. Bobby, ( who will be played by Craig Fair)  a young, stage-struck New Yorker, falls in love with Polly, (played by Lisa Lennox)  a country gal from Deadrock, Nevada, a rapidly failing western town in the middle of nowhere. In order to impress Polly, Bobby decides to help save Deadrock's financially troubled Gaiety Theatre. And how else to save a theatre except by putting on a big show! Imported showgirls from New Your City, and tap dancing cowboys from the Wild West, come together to find love, self-respect and hilarity!
