AFTER THE RAIN
Her parents are famous. Her boyfriend is stupid. And Suzie is a mess.
When she accepts a mature piano student obsessed with mastering only one song, Erik Satie’s “Gymnopedie No. 1”, struggling songwriter Suzie’s life takes an unforeseen turn. Full of family turmoil, life’s complexities, and centered around a devastating discovery, AFTER THE RAIN is a musical based on a true story about the healing power of music.
AFTER THE RAIN is headed to Ottawa!
You can catch the revival of AFTER THE RAIN at the National Arts Centre English Theatre Feb 25- March 7, 2026.
