“I think I put in 100 hours in the last three weeks,” says costume coordinator Kerry Wounie. “I’m here everyday just trying to coordinate all the pieces and put it all together.”

A cast of 44 is backed up by a live band. They’ve been rehearsing since September.

“And I don’t think too many groups do performances to live music,” says Leydier. “Not on this scale. This is huge.”

Tickets are $45 plus tax and can be purchased at the Penticton Lakeside Resort.
