Acis and Galatea
A perfect love. A spurned giant. An enduring memorial.

Imagine, on a cold winter’s night, the Enoch Turner Schoolhouse transformed into a summer bower lit by candlelight. Imagine experiencing George Frideric Handel’s masterpiece of love and transformation Acis and Galatea. Featuring some of Canada’s finest singers, including:

Lawrence Wiliford, tenor, as Acis
