StoryBook Theatre will launch their 45th Season with a new outdoor concert series, Singers @ Sunset, a 6-part weekly presentation that features some of Calgary's brightest rising and shining stars, from August 1 to September 5, 2021.
"When planning the season I had no idea what the future had in store, but I felt an outside concert series might be the perfect gateway back to have a real live audience," said JP Thibodeau, Artistic Producer.
