THE VINYL CAFÉ

BASED ON THE VINYL CAFÉ STORIES BY STUART MCLEAN
WITH SONGS BY COLLEEN DAUNCEY & AKIVA ROMER-SEGAL
ADAPTED FOR THE STAGE BY GEORGINA ESCOBAR

The Citadel is thrilled to announce we have commissioned a musical adaptation of The Vinyl Café by Stuart Mclean. Envisioned as a large-scale holiday musical for the whole family, featuring Dave and Morley and many of Stuart McLean’s beloved characters. The musical will include McLean’s most popular holiday stories, such as: “Dave Cooks the Turkey” and “Rashida, Amir and the Great Gift-Giving”. The musical adaptation is written by Georgina Escobar, with music and lyrics by Colleen Dauncey and Akiva Romer-Segal. Developed in partnership with Jess Milton, producer of The Vinyl Café radio show.

THE VINYL CAFÉ MUSICAL


TRUTHFULLY, JACKIE

BY ANDREA SCOTT

Commissioned by the Citadel this past year, Truthfully, Jackie is a fantastic new play by Andrea Scott that explores an icon that exists in a myth-like bubble: JACKIE ROBINSON. In her own words: “I want to pop that bubble. I’m not American, but what I bring to Truthfully, Jackie, about the first Black man to break the colour line in America, is that I’m not a white male fan. I’m a Black woman who can bring authenticity to his story in the face of racism, while looking at the mythology around a hero who was also just a man.”
