“Life After,” the stirring Canadian musical that premiered at the Toronto Fringe Festival in 2016 and has since played across North America to critical acclaim, will return to Toronto next spring with a cast of local and Broadway stars. 

Britta Johnson’s musical, which follows a teenage girl who searches for answers after the sudden death of her self-help author father, is set to play Mirvish’s CAA Ed Mirvish Theatre for a limited engagement, from April 16 to May 4, 2025. The new production marks the first time that Johnson’s show has played in the city since 2017, when the musical was mounted at Canadian Stage.
