This show was our first production, and was so much fun! In the winter of 2007 we mounted "A CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR" at St. Edmund's hall in Tweed, ON.
The show was quite a success, going off without a hitch. A Christmas Spectacular is an original play written by Director Tim Porter, using classic Christmas Carols. We had a lot of fun creating this piece, and hope to work with it again in future.

THE LAST FIVE YEARS is a contemporary song-cycle musical that ingeniously chronicles the five year life of a marriage, from meeting to break-up... or from break-up to meeting, depending on how you look at it. Written by Jason Robert Brown (Parade, Songs For A New World), The Last Five Years is an intensely personal look at the relationship between a writer and an actress told from both points of view.
IANA Could not have been more excited to produce this amazing contemporary musical. A favourite of our organization, THE LAST FIVE YEARS was a great success.
This show is a beautiful story about love and love lost, relationships, career struggles, and all the funny little things that happen along the way. Incredibly funny, and chillingly sincere, this show was a hit with audiences across Ontario.
For our production we created a brand new multi media based production headed by master of stage and screen Joel MacMeekin. Featuring two of Canada's finest Musical Theatre talents, Amanda Struthmann and Tim Porter, with Musical Direction by Miss Jordann Zaza. For full bios and Company information visit our Ensemble Page.
