The theatre located in the center of Sault Sainte Marie on Ashmun Street has a looooong history of entertaining its citizens for decades.
The Soo Theatre Project, now in this same theatre, not only entertains, but also teaches. This dual function provides children, teens, young adults, older adults, and families with self-exploration, arts education, and fun, confidence-building activity all year long.
Every year, STP becomes more than it was the previous year, adds to its offerings, and creates a warm environment for personal growth. It is the perfect place for you and your children to learn something new in 2015!
Do you feel that tug on your heart to try something new? To expand who you are? Is it your new year’s resolution to express yourself creatively in 2015?
These opportunities are already in place for you and your children!
