Our 2013/2013 Rose Theatre Concert Series continues with our annual celebration of the Christmas season with “Christmas at the Rose” on December 14, 2013, 8 p.m at Brampton’s Rose Theatre.  Under the guidance of music director Vince Gassi, we are pleased to offer a fresh approach to a Christmas concert combining fascinating new music, traditional favourites and theatrical elements to express the spirit of Christmas. 

The concert will intertwine the music with several narratives; the story-telling presented by local Brampton actor Joe Rose. 

We are pleased to have the Brampton Youth Concert Band under the direction of Susan Barber Kahro perform with us.  This will be the first anniversary of their inaugural performance.

As our traditional guests, we are once again excited to have the “Mayfield Singers” Mayfield Secondary School under the direction of Brooke Taylor join us. 

With its creative approach to the Christmas concert theme, exciting guests, thoughtful and highly entertaining music, theatrics and audience participation, “Christmas at the Rose” is an event not to be missed.  We hope to see you there.
