StarExclusive: Donna Feore, the director/choreographer behind some of the most acclaimed musical theatre productions in the Stratford Festival, will not return to the festival next season, the Star has learned, though she plans to come back in the future

Donna Feore, the director/choreographer behind some of the most acclaimed musical theatre productions in the Stratford Festival’s recent history, will not return to the festival next season, the Star has learned, though she plans to come back in the future.

She is director and choreographer of “The Griswolds’ Broadway Vacation: The Musical,” which opens for a limited run at Seattle’s Fifth Avenue Theatre on Sept. 10. The musical comedy extends the franchise of “Vacation” movies that began in 1983 with “National Lampoon’s Vacation.” It is produced by Ken Davenport, whose other projects include the 2018 Tony-Award winning revival of “Once on this Island” and “A Beautiful Noise: The Neil Diamond Musical,” which opens on Broadway in December.

Feore first worked at the Stratford Festival as a dancer in 1990 and has made Stratford her home since the mid-’90s. She met her husband, actor Colm Feore, at the festival.
