"I'm honoured to be able to work with such incredible and multi-talented teen performers. Not only will audiences get to see Coquitlam's past in a free all-ages, interactive outdoor musical, they'll be able to see Coquitlam's bright future," MacDonald said in a news release.
Now in its third year, the Summer Teen Theatre Troupe is sponsored by the Hamber Foundation.
