Stage East is a professional company that produces live theatrical and musical performances.
Based in Amherst, NS, the geographical centre of the Maritimes, we celebrate the people of Canada’s Maritime provinces and their stories.
Stage East operates under the umbrella of the Great Amherst Cultural Society, a registered not for profit charity that is also responsible for Esther Fest. We are a relatively new group and are continuing to expand our offerings. As of 2026 we produce musical tribute shows celebrating East Coast artists and an annual original Christmas dinner theatre.

Maritime Songbirds on Tour
Our latest musical tribute, Maritime Songbirds, is currently touring New Brunswick. The show features five remarkable female singer/musicians, including New Brunswick’s Queen of the Blues, Theresa Malenfant. We pay tribute to some of the East Coast’s best female singers and/or songwriters, including Sarah McLachlan, Carroll Baker, Anne Murray, Shirley Eikhard, and Rita MacNeil. The show is hosted by best-selling author Charlie Rhindress. For TICKETS to our upcoming performances click HERE.
