The North Side
Based on the award-winning film Foster, The North Side is a stunning new uplifting musical about faith, family, and second chances. Set in a struggling church in a small Midwestern town, it follows Pastor Jonathan and teacher Scarlett as they navigate loss, hope, and the unexpected arrival of a young boy who changes everything. Filled with soaring gospel-inspired music, humour, and heart, The North Side is a powerful story of community, redemption, and discovering where you truly belong.
In a forgotten corner of America's North Side, a struggling church stands on the brink of closure. Attendance is dwindling, faith is fading, and Pastor Jonathan is questioning whether he still has the strength to lead his community forward.
When Scarlett, a local teacher carrying wounds of her own, crosses paths with Jonathan, their lives become intertwined by an unexpected bond. At the centre of it all is Zac, a bright young boy searching for a place to belong and the family he never knew he needed.
As friendships deepen, secrets emerge, and the community rallies together, they discover that hope can be found in the most unlikely places. Through laughter, heartbreak, and unforgettable music, The North Side explores what it means to rebuild not just a church, but the lives within it.
Featuring a vibrant score blending contemporary musical theatre with gospel, soul, and country influences, The North Side is an inspiring new musical about faith, family, forgiveness, and the power of ordinary people to create extraordinary change.
Funny, moving, and filled with heart, this brand-new production celebrates the resilience of community and reminds us that sometimes the road home begins when we stop running from who we are.
A powerful new musical about finding hope when all seems lost.
