Community volunteers with the vision of "Building a community of joy where everyone is welcome to experience the exceptional"
Stage Prophets Theatrical Society is a not-for-profit amateur musical theatre company that operates in the beautiful Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. For over 20 years we have been dedicated to creating and sharing volunteer-created professional-level live theatre with and for our community. We produce a large extravagantly staged Broadway-style musical every year in late May or early June.
In the past, our productions have included Godspell, Joseph, and the Amazing Technicolored Dreamcoat, Les Misérables, Beauty and the Beast, Oliver, Anne and Gilbert, Fiddler on the Roof, Jesus Christ Superstar and our latest production in 2024 The Music Man. In 2025 we are back to Acadia's McCain Arena from June 6th to the 8th 2025 with another blockbuster production: The Wizard of Oz. This all-ages show with another cast of over 200 will feature our usual first-rate production values and for this show "Monkeys Will Fly" . A live musical theatre experience not to be missed.
From its humble beginnings in 2003 with 16 youth wearing tie-dyed t-shirts in a church basement, Stage Prophets has evolved into a large-scale community-based organization whose vision is:
“Building a community of joy where everyone is welcome to experience the exceptional”
Our mandate is to offer family-friendly, high-quality musical theatre productions, workshops, and events for the children, youth, adults, and seniors in our community. Our productions are a chance to participate in theatre and experience the thrill of bringing a story to life. Our goal is to involve a very large group of people (sometimes in the hundreds) in an artistic opportunity that incorporates learning, intergenerational interaction, diversity, and cultural awareness in a welcoming, inclusive environment that addresses barriers to participation.
We are a registered, charity advised by a Board of Directors and guiding principles. Our funding comes solely from ticket sales, grants, sponsorships, and donations. Since 2002, Stage Prophets has mounted 22 shows. Our preparation process involves everyone who wants to participate regardless of their capabilities, either onstage in the performance and/or in the myriad of offstage components that go into a show. We create an atmosphere where everyone feels valued and has opportunities to share of themselves. From that community of tightly-knit, supportive and passionate individuals, an amazing collective production emerges.
