Airs: Sunday 9:00 pm – 11:00 pm and Wednesday 9:00 pm – 11:00 pm
Each week, Front Row Centre pays tribute to outstanding and interesting musical theatre productions. The show includes cast recordings and many revealing stories about the musicals and those involved in their creation. When possible, host Jack Brezina finds people involved in recent productions in Ontario and talks to them about their experiences. Jack always uncovers interesting nuggets of information about the musicals and people who make them happen…..but, it is the fabulous music which flows from these productions that is the highlight of each show. Front Row Centre can be heard on Canoe FM every Sunday and Wednesday at 9 p.m. There is a new show each week.. Of course, selected past editions are accessible anytime at this location on line.
The host of Front Row Centre Jack Brezina has always had an enduring interest in musical theatre. In his youth he recalls hearing songs from musicals on the radio and many adult record collections included sound track recordings on 33.3 rpm albums. Over the year his interest in musicals continued and so he is pleased to have this opportunity to revisit the old standards and feature the latest musical theatre productions from Broadways, Toronto and London’s West End. The best seat in the house is always waiting just for you, Front Row Centre.
