Harlem of the North

Harlem of the North a musical

Ella’s family moves to 1920s Montreal seeking a new life, but the city’s jazz scene isn’t the only thing pulling at her. Grief, love, and ambition. How much will she sacrifice to carve out a space for herself and live life on her own terms?

***

La famille d’Ella s’installe dans le Montréal des années 1920 à la recherche d’une nouvelle vie, mais la scène jazz de la ville n’est pas la seule à l’attirer. Deuil, amour et ambition. Jusqu’où ira-t-elle pour se faire une place et vivre sa vie?
