April Sora first moved to Saskatoon many years ago and the first place she visited was The Broadway Theatre. Having her very own cushion in the cushion bin made her feel like she belonged here.

Best of all, being a part of Saskatoon’s only true community-owned theatre is a perfect fit for April’s ongoing quest for social justice!
