Since its inception in 1956 as The Operatic Society of Grantham United Church, to becoming Garden City Productions in 1963, it seems we have come full circle recently purchasing our new home that we lovingly call ‘The Kirk’, formerly St. Andrews Church in St. Catharines.
Entertaining audiences with musicals like The Pirates of Penzance, Oliver!, Oklahoma, The King and I, Jesus Christ Superstar, Sweet Charity, Gypsy, West Side Story, Cabaret, The Full Monty, White Christmas, Annie, Godspell, Fiddler on the Roof and the list goes on!
Without the support of the many volunteers and of course you, our audience, we would not have been able to accomplish this huge achievement.

We are so proud to be able to say, “We knew them when“.
