Memories of… North Bay Theatre
I have very fond memories of participating in the North Bay theatre program called TOROS. Every summer high school students would gather in a church basement to rehearse a musical to be presented over 4 days in early August.
Much of our time went into rehearsals but the real draw was hanging out with friends. There are a million memories about rehearsing and performance, but I also enjoyed garlic bread with cheese at Demarco’s, packed car trips to Dairy Queen, and skinny dipping in Lake Nipissing (IN THE DARK!!!).
