Rosalia’s Piano

Station Road Arts presents Rosalia’s Piano, an entirely original production based on a true story. The new work is written by Station Road Arts’ Conrad Beaubien and directed by John Burns. The musical score is composed by Gregory Garrett, and he is joined by the talented Quinte Symphony violinist Joel Bootsma. These elements, along with the fascinating integration of animation effects created by Ivan Simonetti and the beautifully vibrant costuming created by local artisans, come together to create a truly one-of-a-kind theatrical experience not to be missed.

Rosalia’s Piano tells the story of a married couple: Rosalia, a pianist, and Ivan, a second violinist in a symphony orchestra in Eastern Europe. When war displaced the pair from their homeland, Rosalia’s piano was lost while Ivan was able to save his precious violin. Seeking refuge in the small town of Calumet Falls, Ontario, the couple tries to build a new life for themselves and find their place in this small community. Can love, community, fellowship and the search for a new piano restore their inner sanctuary?

Members of the cast of Shatterbox Theatre’s groundbreaking production of the musical Spring Awakening reunite to bring Rosalia’s Piano to life, starring Megan Hutton, Gabriel Guadagnin and Georgia Papanicolaou.
