The School of Cities invites you to join Mitchell Cohen and his musical ensemble for Songs and Stories of Hope.
About this Event

The Journey Musical told the remarkable Regent Park transformation story through the eyes of young people growing up in a neighbourhood notorious for guns, gangs and violence.

Songs From The Journey, a ‘greatest hits’ version of the musical, brought the Regent Park story from the community to the spectacular Koerner Hall.

Building on that momentum, Mitchell Cohen stepped into the spotlight with a new show – Songs and Stories from The Journey –sharing stories and never-heard-before songs about the journey of the revitalization and his own life.

Now, Mitchell invites you to join him, along with Colleen Allen on reeds, Eric St-Laurent on guitar, and Henry Heillig on bass for: Songs and Stories of Hope.

This performance is supported by the School of Cities at the University of Toronto.
