Theatre Aurora began its 2025-2927 season on September 20th with 'Yesterday once more', a musical retrospective of the greatest popular musical hits of the 60s and 70s, conceived by Theatre Aurora alumni Judi Cragg and Neil Kernohan.

I was in a full-house audience with my partner Pat Cromie on opening night and we were both thrilled by the big cast of 14 singers and dancers presenting 45 musical numbers spread over two acts.

I being going to Theatre Aurora productions ever since the company started and Friday night's show was one of the most enjoyable nights I have ever spent in the local theatre.

The audience applauded and hooted and hollered after every one of the evenings offerings.

Well done to Judi Cragg and Neill Kernohan who produced the show and the terrific singing and dancing cast.
