With a library approaching two hundred arrangements\, almost all of which have been written by the members of the group\, They Festive Brass playfully boast the ability to play almost any Christmas tune upon request\, and may even tell you: “If we don’t know it\, we’ll fake it!”

SUMMARY:Ridge - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:Seniors $34 | Veteran Discount $25 |Grade 8–12 Students $5 \nThis performance of Ridge has been cancelled. Patrons who have purchased tickets will be contacted by the Ticket Centre for refunds.  \nOften called the “battle that made Canada\,” Vimy Ridge resulted in over 10\,000 Canadian casualties. Through direct storytelling\, theatre\, and live music from Brenden McLeod and the band The Fugitives\, Ridge examines misconceptions and varying perspectives around the battle\, while drawing parallels to other formative events in our nation’s past. \n  \n\n \nFeaturing inventive musical interpretations of WWI soldier songs throughout\, Ridge probes difficult yet necessary questions about how and why we grieve. A vivid\, kinetic ride through history\, as well as an intimate\, personal examination of our connection to the past\, Ridge is a visceral work that passionately argues against the exploitation of young lives.

SUMMARY:Cabaret: Raine Hamilton - Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:Raine is part prairie songstress\, part storyweaver; each song has a story\, delivered between songs with humour and grace. \n\nRaine invites deep love of the violin into the singer-songwriter genre\, writing for violin and voice\, as well as for guitar and voice. Joined by cello and upright bass\, expect string arrangements that push and pull\, that move as they console. A classical violinist and musicologist by training\, Raine and their string trio offer string-quartet-like arrangements of Raine’s original songs. They call this chamber-folk\, a hybrid of the classical tradition of string quartet chamber music\, with the singer songwriter folk that comes so organically to Raine. \n\n\n\nCPAC Cabaret performances feature up-close and intimate concerts with cabaret-style seating onstage. Ticket availability per show is limited.

SUMMARY:Cabaret: Qairo
DESCRIPTION:Qairo is a fiery and dynamic ensemble that combines the emotional charged vocals and pulsing rhythms of flamenco dance with the infectious melodies and ear-popping tonalities of the Mediterranean diaspora. The seven person ensemble’s tight-knit and eclectic members hail from France\, Spain\, Canada and Turkey to create unique blend of world music. \n\nFrom Spain to Turkey to India (with stops along the way)\, Qairo is music for dancing — no matter where you’re from. It’s Turkish micro-tones played on an Indian bansuri flute\, original flamenco verses “sung” by a clarinet\, Balkan rhythms punctuated by Andalucian guitar\, and flamenco footwork pounded out like improvised jazz. Qairo is guitar\, oud\, clarinet\, bansuri\, saxophone\, cajon\, electric bass\, cante (flamenco song) and baile (flamenco dance) acting like they belong on stage together — and pulling it off. \n\n\n\nCPAC Cabaret performances feature up-close and intimate concerts with cabaret-style seating onstage. Ticket availability per show is limited.

SUMMARY:Dancers Of Damelahamid: Minowin
DESCRIPTION:Students grades 8–12 $5 \nMînowin illuminates the process of finding direction and explores understandings of organic moments that arise when we connect with one another. These connections breathe new life into our artistic practices and offer critical inquiries with performance spaces. \nThrough integrating narrative\, movement\, song\, performance\, and new multimedia design\, Mînowin connects landscapes and Coastal form line with contemporary perspectives of customary Indigenous dance forms. The Dancers of Damelahamid draw from origin stories and explore ways to translate these perspectives through a contemporary lens. Through multimedia elements\, this production balances the performance space by adding contemporary reflections of Indigenous identity\, immersing audiences in a narrative that illustrates moments of connection\, understanding\, and renewal. \nOpening performance from the Cowichan Tzinquaw Dancers! \n\n\n\nDancers of Damelahamid is an Indigenous dance company founded upon over five decades of extensive work of song and dance revitalization. For countless generations Indigenous dance played an integral part in defining art and culture. In response to the lifting of the Potlatch Ban (1884 – 1951)\, was the resurfacing of dance and the awakening of an art form that was outlawed for almost 70 years. The Dancers of Damelahamid emerged in the 1960s out of an urgency to ensure that these artistic practices were not lost. \nThe Dancers of Damelahamid has since established itself as a leading professional Indigenous dance company. The company’s artistic approaches have contributed to its abilities to bridge creative practices and to work with innovative mediums\, while maintaining commitment to the integrity of their artistic legacy. It is through continual and diligent practice that this dance form endures as non-static and relevant to current innovation\, influence\, and insights.

SUMMARY:Downchild Blues Band
DESCRIPTION:Cowichan Performing Arts Centre and Gee Dan Productions present \n\nRoaring through bracing\, high-octane performances since 1969\, the band founded and continuously steered by harmonica and guitar ace Donnie “Mr. Downchild” Walsh is as vibrant today as when Dan Aykroyd and the late John Belushi went sniffing around for inspiration for their brilliant Blues Brothers venture back in the 1970s. The pair elevated Downchild’s “Shotgun Blues” and Walsh’s “(I Got Everything I Need) Almost” to smash status on their 1978 Briefcase Full of Blues record. Actually\, the 2017 iteration of Downchild — with each member boasting a minimum of 20 years of service — might be the most electrifying yet. For proof\, simply check out the sextet’s towering\, lid-lifting\, juke-joint–jumping 18th studio album\, Something I’ve Done\, a bona fide group effort and a sonic highlight in a 50-year career spilling over with them. Special guest is 2022 JUNO-nominated singer-songwriter\, Miss Emily.

SUMMARY:Josephine: A Cabaret Burlesque Dream Play
DESCRIPTION:19+ audiences only. Show contains mild sexual content and partial nudity. \n\n\n\nJosephine\, a burlesque cabaret dream play is an international award-winning and off-Broadway one-woman biographical musical that combines cabaret\, theatre and dance to tell the story of the iconic Josephine Baker\, the first African-American international superstar and one of the most remarkable figures of the 20th Century. \n\n\n\nBorn in St. Louis in 1906\, Josephine Baker achieved only moderate success in the United States\, but became an international superstar after moving to France in the early 20’s. She starred alongside white romantic leading men in films in the 30’s\, had multiple interracial marriages and homosexual relationships\, and performed in men’s clothing before the term “drag” existed in the lexicon. She was also a spy for the French Resistance\, a civil rights activist\, and the mother of 12 adopted children from 4 continents. Her success in France and Europe often gave her the opportunity to live freely without the racial oppression of her home nation\, though she never stopped yearning for acceptance in America. \n\nThis performance will be accompanied with live music from the Pierre Komen Quartet.

Jesse and his extraordinary band are looking forward to returning to the road\, bringing the Tempest II Tour and their unique brand of rhythm and rhumba to audiences across North America in 2022. \n\nPhoto by Matt Barnes

. \n\n\n\nANIMAL takes us on a journey of discovery through a series of slightly surreal farm fables served up with a touch of irreverence\, impressive virtuosity and the company’s signature comic touch. In this reinvented agricultural world\, the farm is turned upside down and the barn’s inside out! \n\nA gentleman farmer has surrounded himself with some familiar but slightly outlandish creatures: the chickens have teeth\, the ducks are slightly menacing and the cows are kicking up a fuss. In this “farm fantasy\,” the imagination conjures up stories from childhood\, rural life proves to be both energetic and poetic\, and clichés are joyfully turned on their head. Yet again\, the clan of family and friends that make up Cirque Alfonse has favoured a multidisciplinary approach where circus\, song\, dance and theatre all come together\, driven by original live music—an irresistible mix of trad and soul that the troupe calls agricultural funk! \n\nA production for young and old alike\, animal is the farm gone haywire!
