Jamming for a cause

Hosts Seamus O’Regan and Allan Hawco welcome the crowd

We went on the road for this inaugural Sea and be Scene feature, taking in an East Coast Extravaganza at the Virgin Mobile Mod club in Toronto. Great Friends, fantastic fans and a super band gathered for a very special concert in support of The Company Theatre. Founded by actors Allan Hawco and Philip Riccio back in 2005, The Company Theatre’s award-winning productions have been appreciated by both audiences and critics alike. The annual fundraiser has been growing each year and this was their biggest – thanks to the headliner. “That’s Alan Doyle right,” Hawco explains. “Alan kept adding amazing musicians to the list and being super enthusiastic and helpful and supportive. Everyone’s support… it’s amazing.”
