Broadway

When the dog bites, when the bee stings… we simply head to the Segal Centre’s Studio.

Broadway Café is going golden age: Sound of Music, Guys and Dolls, and every classic you've been humming since you were knee-high to a Rodgers and Hammerstein overture.

Hosts Charlotte Paradis and Jonathan D'Amour are rolling out the standards, with Chris Barillaro accompanying all night. Raindrops on roses optional.

Join us November 14th.

HOW IT WORKS:

VIRTUAL SIGN-UP: you must sign up to sing at the link above before 4 p.m. the day of the event.

The order of performances will be drawn at random live the night of the event. We’ll do our best to get to as many singers as possible, you can help us by picking a song that is under 3 – 4 minutes.

When the hosts call your name, you will have a chance to consult with the pianist before singing. All our pianists are experts at sight-reading and will be able to accompany you and make you feel comfortable.

Our “one song rule” remains in effect. We will let everyone sing once before anyone can sing a second time. Solos, duets, trios, and group songs all count as your one song, so choose wisely.

The only exception to this rule is preview numbers of upcoming musicals. These must be booked in advance and will not count towards your “one song”. We will even promote your production on our Broadway Café Facebook page. For more info or to reserve a preview spot, message us on social media or send an email to ndemmon@segalcentre.org

The themes are just for fun! Use the prompt as inspo or sing whatever your heart desires.

Click here for a list of the songbooks available onsite. If you have a specific song you’d like to sing we’d recommend bringing your own sheet music to be sure.

Please bring your sheet music on double-sided and three-hole punched paper.

Seating is general admission. This is not a show so you can feel free to get up and move around as needed. The bar will be open throughout and concessions are allowed in the theatre.

Broadway Café is a warm, supportive, and welcoming environment open to singers of all skill levels. We will cheer you on and be your backup singers no matter what!

Amongst its many perks, Class Act offers members -50% off on tickets to Broadway Café as well as a -10% at the bar. Find out more about this amazing subscription package for students and under 30.
