A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ARTS
It is both a pleasure and a privilege to warmly welcome you to HSC’s 2022-2023 Performing Arts season in the Virtue-Fitzgerald Centre. Such wonderful moments await, and students and faculty alike cannot wait to share them with you!
The power with which the Performing Arts have come roaring back to life after being shuttered for so long is an undeniable testament to their intrinsic and vital role in our community and in our lives. As ever, the Arts bring us together, and the passion and dedication that our HSC students bring to their involvement in productions and musical ensembles is truly inspiring to us all.
Whether you are here to see a theatrical or musical performance, we have no doubt that you will be delighted by the collaborative creative spirit that is thriving at HSC, and we are confident that you will be back for more!
Our productions of Clue and The Wizard of Oz showcase the marvelous breadth of dramatic, comedic and vocal talent in the Senior School. Our Middle School performance of Oliver! Jr. is sure to be a tour-de-force display of the incredible energy and courage of our Middle School students, as well as the dedication and brilliance of the cross-college faculty team behind the scenes. This year, for the first time since 2019, a phenomenally talented crew of staff, alumni and parents will have you in stitches (or should I say staples?) with our truly zany and hilarious staff/alumni/parent production of Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein
If you are here to see a musical performance, our student ensembles from the youngest to the oldest grades will wow onstage, and you will be blown away (pun intended) by our Hot Jazz on a Cold Night concert. This year’s concert features our amazing HSC Junior and Senior Jazz ensembles, paired with a performance by Juno award-winning Toronto saxophonist Allison Au and her quartet, featuring special guest, our very own HSC alumnus and internationally acclaimed trumpet player Darren Johnston!
As you can see (and hear), the Arts are alive and well at HSC. We are so thrilled that you are here with us to celebrate the beating heart of our HSC community through song, dance, drama and collective music-making. Enjoy the show!

Get a Clue and step inside Boddy Manor for a story of murder, mayhem and mischief! Join us for the hilarious and beloved “whodunit?” play, inspired by the classic Parker Brothers board game turned 1985 film. Everyone is a suspect and no one is safe when the likes of Colonel Mustard, Mrs. White, Professor Plum, Wadsworth the Butler, Mr. Green, Miss Scarlet, Mrs. Peacock and Yvette the Maid gather under mysterious circumstances, only to be caught in a confounding crime. Only one thing is certain: it’s bound to be murderous good fun!

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Hillfield Strathallan College is situated upon the traditional territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas.
This land is covered by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which was an agreement between the Haudenosaunee, Anishinabek and other Indigenous nations to share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes.
As members of the learning community at HSC, we are committed to honouring this covenant by working alongside our Indigenous neighbours and building a sustainable relationship with the land that we all cherish.
