BOUNCE – Block Party
A Theatre Centre Fundraiser
The whole block, all in one spot!
We’re packing the Franco Boni Theatre and our Gallery space with the best of West Queen West. All your favourite things about the neighbourhood, and all your best nights out, will be under one roof!
Eat, drink, and dance the night away in our “Drake Hotel” pop-up; chill-out with good music, great friends, and ping-pong in La La La Human Steps’ long-serving Music Director Njo Kong Kie’s Artscape Triangle “Loft”; and of course, no night out on West Queen West would be complete without a pit stop at Poutini’s!
All this, plus live music, DJs, dancing, immersive performances by bluemouth inc., and much more, make The Theatre Centre the place to be on May 27th!
Support the dynamic work of The Theatre Centre and party with us as we celebrate all that makes our community great!
