The Canadian Stage Company is bringing the glitz and glamour of New York City nightlife to the Sheraton Centre's Grand Ballroom for their 11th annual Theatre Ball.

This popular fundraiser will be held on January 29 and will include a silent auction, casino and numerous special guests.

The silent auction will be set up as a stroll through Central Park, with a live jazz ensemble playing under the trees and the dining and dancing will take place in a night club atmosphere. There will even be a photographer to take your picture under the trees!

The cocktail party begins at 6 PM and at 7:30 PM the casino doors will open to reveal a mistress of ceremonies, a musical toast to New York City, special guests and the Kenny Simons Band, who will dance you into the night.

It's always a real class act and if you're keen to support Canada's largest not-for-profit company, this is a great way to do it. Tickets are $250 per person. The CanStage Ball is on Jan. 29. Call Stacey Helpert, Special Events Manager, for tickets: 416-367-8243. Ext. 241.
