- Windsor Light Music Theatre
Windsor Light Music Theatre is a group of volunteers in Windsor, Ontario dedicated to providing "Broadway-style" live theatrical performances to the Windsor-Essex, marketplace.
Windsor Light Music Theatre (formerly named The Windsor Light Opera Association) was founded by Dr. John H. L. Watson in 1948 with the goal of presenting musical theatre to the Windsor-Essex County area. The company started producing two major musical productions per year and has continued to do so to the present day.
In the early years the company presented what was at the time referred to as operettas, "light operas", which was reflected in the name Windsor Light Opera.
Originally the productions were housed and presented on the Walkerville Collegiate stage. In 1960 Windsor Light Opera moved to the Cleary Auditorium, now called the Chrysler Theatre in the Saint Clair College for the Arts, where Windsor Light Musical Theatre stages its spring and fall performances annually.
Windsor Light Musical Theatre presents two full scale Broadway Musicals every year. During non production hours Windsor Light Musical Theatre is home to a talented Youth Choir. Here, youth in the community receive outstanding vocal training. Likewise, their Players Group presents excellent and award winning smaller musical and theatrical productions. Further theatrical outreach to the community included their Cabaret Singers for the past ten years.
