Great News! We’ve been touring Get Stuffed, a new opera for children set in the school cafeteria for 2 years in schools across Ontario. We’ve been trying to find the best way to bring this super fun show to a larger, public audience and we are thrilled to partner with the Distillery Historic District to end the 2010 tour on May 15, 2010 with a free family day including 3 outdoor performances and fun food workshops and activities. Visitors will also have the opportunity to help fight hunger by dropping off a non-perishable food donation to support the Daily Bread Food Bank and to collect information and parent resources from ChildFind Canada who assist in the search for and prevention of missing children.
