This year’s Canadian Stage Theatre Ball “Notte Italiana” was the first fundraising gala to be held at the new Ritz-Carlton Toronto. The evening included a fabulous menu, raffle and unique live and silent auctions. Over $300,000 was raised to help Canadian Stage ensure the ongoing excellence of the company’s artistic programming, artistic development activities, and education and youth initiatives.
