Elgin And Winter Garden Theatre Centre
HEART & MUSIC is proud to call the Winter Garden Theatre home.
Designated a national historic site in 1982, the Elgin & Winter Garden Theatre Centre is the last "double-decker" or stacked Edwardian theatre facility in the world. Built in 1913 as the flagship of the famous Loews chain of vaudeville theatres, the 1,500-seat Elgin theatre (downstairs) is a sumptuous affair with royal boxes and exquisite gilded plaster details. Upstairs, however, is the magical Winter Garden, named for the trompe l'oeil paintings of vines and pastoral, and the fabulous simulated fire-proof garden that hangs from the roof, including thousands of beech boughs. Multi-million dollar renovations mean that for all the ambiance, these two theatres are state-of-the-art.
Since re-opening in 1989, the Winter Garden stage has seen such shows and performers as Holly Cole, Mandy Patinkin, Ballet Trocadero, Howie Mandel, Piaf, The Drowsy Chaperone, Copenhagen, Lewis Black, Umoja, Sandra Shamas, Scaramouche Jones, The Nutcracker, Ron James, Michael Buble, Tuesdays With Morrie, Celine Dion, Tango Fire, Matt Dusk, Paul Anka, Barbra Walters, Jackie Mason and The Canadian Tenors.
It is now time for HEART & MUSIC to grace this magnificent stage.
