SENIORS SERIES
Classics Company Musical
For accessible seating (including those with walkers) and group sales, please contact the box office at 905-304-3232
Theatre Ancaster’s Classics Company produces a musical from the Golden Age of Musical Theatre each season, and this year is no exception. An old favourite is coming up in early 2025, and we want you to be ready to welcome it. A professional touring production of this show prevents us from announcing the title until October 10, so keep your eyes peeled for the title of this show!
This Seniors Series show features performers aged 55+ from our Classics Company: Musical program. Members showcase their talents as they present concert-style versions of well-known musicals.

Al Croxall
Director
Al has had the privilege and honor of being with TA since before the beginning. He is amazed and a little in awe of how our shows with Gord Conroy and Ralf Hakenberg at Ancaster High School starting in 1982 and our: “Let’s put on a show for the Ancaster Bicentennial” in 1992, has evolved into the amazing community gem it is today. He still likes to keep his hand in behind the scenes and enjoys working with his wife and partner, Krys, in the Classics and Christmas Benefit shows. Break a leg, everyone.
Kyrs Croxall
Director
After a long career in education as a teacher, school administrator and superintendent, Krys retired in 2014 and joined the Theatre Ancaster Board of Directors. Since then, she has served as Secretary and now Treasurer of the Board. With her husband she has produced several Firehall shows (Nunsense and I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change), main stage musicals (Chicago, Annie) and annual Christmas Radio Shows. Along with Gord Conroy and Steve Becker, she and her husband initiated the Classics program for seniors over 55, resulting in the successful sold-out presentations of South Pacific and Oklahoma.
Theatre Ancaster has been Krys’ passion project. In the early years she performed on the main stage and now sings with Theatre Ancaster Chorus and the Classics musical program. She loves musicals but it is the joy of working with talented people, especially her husband Al, to create the magic on stage that keeps her coming back for more. In 2021 Krys was delighted to be selected for the John Nielsen award presented annually by Theatre Ancaster to the volunteer of the year for her many years of service to the company.
