A writer, singer-songwriter, composer and performer whose work celebrates vulnerability and the dismantling of persona—The Theatre Centre is proud to present an intimate night of music with Stewart Legere as part of our Tiny Concert Series!
Join us at The Theatre Centre Café/Bar for songs and stories. The East-Coast songwriter Legere will play a collection of new songs, selections from his 2017 debut QUIET THE STATION, and more.
Stewart Legere is a queer multidisciplinary artist from Punamu’kwati’jk/Dartmouth, where he lives with his partner, their cats, and a small flock of spirited chickens. He is the Associate Artistic Director of ZUPPA, and Artistic Director of interdisciplinary contemporary performance company The Accidental Mechanics Group. His work has been presented across the country and around the world. A writer, singer-songwriter, composer and performer, he finds joy in hosting, running, walking, cooking, arguing, and exploring the nooks and crannies of melancholy. He has very good friends. For more specifics, and pictures of him reaching towards different things, follow him @stewartlegere.
Programmed in partnership with Wan.
“I’m excited to work with The Theatre Centre on this series for Spring/Summer 2026. Together we will work in partnership to design and explore an intimate music series featuring local artists. Our aim is to animate the building’s unique spaces. It’s always great to create more opportunities to connect with our scene.” – Wan
Wan is a Community-minded cultural curator, event producer, and programmer logging 20+ years of programming experience with over 5 years of public art curation. As a child growing up in Toronto, he sat in the living room of his neighbour’s apartment amongst a clutter of records and watched as the painter and sculptor formed works of art. Wan has carried this sense of wonder through his curation work as music director of The Manifesto Festival and his production capacities as co-founder of the long-running music event series Gumbo and The Main Ingredient.
As Curator he has worked on three photo based public art exhibitions. Wan is constantly seeking new opportunities to work in partnership with creatives, organizations and institutions to grow his curatorial and programming practice, while making space for interesting and fresh ideas and perspectives both within and outside of his lived experience.

“Some of my all-time favourite moments have been when something hilariously awkward happens in public and I catch the eyes of a stranger and for a second we know exactly what each other is thinking. And then we go about our lives. It’s a beautiful intimacy.” For actor, director, and writer Gregory Prest, even a...
