SUMMARY:Derek Edwards – Oxy Moron!
DESCRIPTION:Price:\n$73.81 – All Seats \nDate and Time:\nMarch 15\, 2026 – 7:30 pm \n  \n\n  \nDEREK EDWARDS – Oxy Moron\nEvery few millennia\, a comic emerges\, born from the cosmic soup of fate and time\, jostled by the gales of change onto the unpredictable shores of comedic brilliance. This is a man who embodies pluck and wit\, lighthearted yet encumbered\, and a naivete that somehow remains endearing.  As Derek says:  In the grand contest of life\, he stands proudly as a bona fide “participant.” \nWell … truth be told\, there’s a lot more to it than that.  From Vegas to St. John’s\, this Just For Laughs veteran is universally considered to be among the comic elite. Certainly his peers think so\, as evidenced by the fact that he’s a four-time nominee\, and winner of Best Standup Comic – Canadian Comedy Awards\, as well as a multiple Gemini nominee for Best Performance in a Comedy. As Rick Mercer says\, “Everyone knows Derek is the funniest man in Canada.” \nClearly the critics agree: “5 STARS – the funniest man on earth” – Winnipeg Free Press; “4 STARS – the crowd howled” – Victoria Times Colonist; “still the funniest man in Canada” – Toronto Sun; “Edwards reigns as the King of Canadian comedy” – Charlottetown Guardian; “Derek Edwards is hysterical” – Calgary Sun; “Edwards takes stand-up to next stage” – Georgia Straight; “the epitome of timing & storytelling” – Halifax Chronicle Herald; “the comedian’s comedian” – London Free Press. \nSo come on out and join Derek for his latest show\, Oxy Moron\, as it makes its way across Canada. Expect a night of perceptive guesswork and charmingly misguided jabs from a cherished performer. Enjoy some hearty laughs\, a sprinkling of wisdom\, and the pleasure of mingling with fellow humans. It’s a triple win!

SUMMARY:Lunch at Allen’s – Farewell Tour!
DESCRIPTION:Price:\n$83.75 – All Seats \nDate and Time:\nJune 12\, 2025 – 7:30 pm \n  \n\n  \nLUNCH AT ALLEN’S … FAREWELL TOUR! featuring MURRAY McLAUCHLAN\, CINDY CHURCH\, MARC JORDAN and IAN THOMAS\nAs the saying goes ‘all good things must come to an end’ and so it is with Lunch At Allen’s\, who will embark on a country-wide Farewell Tour beginning in Atlantic Canada this October. Coming together in 2004\, for what was meant to be a one-off 8-date tour presented as a song-writer’s circle\, the four renowned artists discovered a soul-warming joie de vivre in performing together … and so began 20 years of camaraderie touring the country coast to coast. \nLunch At Allen’s is a musical powerhouse comprising four remarkable Canadian talents: Murray McLauchlan\, Cindy Church\, Marc Jordan and Ian Thomas. As individuals\, they have written for or sung on over 25\,000\,000 CDs\, penning hits for Josh Groban\, Chicago\, Bonnie Raitt\, America\, Santana\, Cher and Rod Stewart\, as well as Murray’s Farmer’s Song\, Marc’s Marina Del Rey and Ian’s Painted Ladies\, just to name a few. These three artists have come together adding the incredible voice of Cindy Church (Quartette\, Great Western Orchestra) to form Lunch At Allen’s. Attending their stage show is to embark on an intimate musical journey replete with laughter and personal anecdotes\, familiar favourites and new material\, fashioning an unforgettable evening’s entertainment …from their hearts …to your soul. \n“You would be hard pressed to find another Canadian ensemble with more collective depth of influence over Canada’s musical landscape than Lunch At Allen’s.” – The Beat Magazine\n

SUMMARY:Ron James: Not Nearly Done Yet!
DESCRIPTION:Price:\n$78.75 – All Seats \nDate and Time:\nJune 5\, 2025 – 7:30 pm \n  \n\n  \nWith twenty-five years spent barrelling down endless strips of asphalt from coast to coast\, RON JAMES\, our nation’s number one road warrior and newly minted senior citizen\, is Not Nearly Done Yet!\nWith his trademark poetically charged alliterative rants\, performed with razor sharp timing\, this award-winning comedian and best-selling author takes audiences on a marathon roller coaster ride in the language of laughs\, charting a course through a politically polarized world out of whack.  From the micro to macro\, he tackles everything from the dating woes of Baby Boomers\, embattled public health care\, aging parents\, food fads\, exercise addiction\, nostalgia\, information overload\, tropical vacations gone awry\, New Age divas\, homelessness crisis\, climate change\, corporate monopolies and gambling ads in hockey\, to the rise of AI’s robot revolution. The comedian the Globe and Mail called\, ‘a man of a million words and a million laughs’\, contemplates what really matters most in a culture beset by runaway consumption… and it is us. The preservation of humanity’s humanity. ‘Everything else is just a spoiler on a Dodge Neon’. \n  \n“Utterly Brilliant” – Ottawa Sun \n“fits of helpless laughter” – Halifax Herald \n“hysterically funny … at the top of his game” – Toronto Star \n“gut-busting\, knee-slapping funny” – Ottawa Citizen \n“funniest man in Canada” – Victoria Times-Colonist \n“thunderous standing ovation” – Saskatoon Star Phoenix \n

SUMMARY:THE STAMPEDERS.... One More Time! (Abbotsford)
DESCRIPTION:Price:\n$96.25 – All Seats \nDate and Time:\nMay 13\, 2025 – 7:30 pm \n  \n\n  \n‘They’re on their way\, to the city lights’ … and\, THE predominant Canadian Rock ‘n’ Roll band of the 1970s – The Stampeders – are bringing along all their classic hits: Wild Eyes\, Carry Me\, Oh My Lady\, Devil You\, Ramona\, Minstrel Gypsy\, Hit the Road Jack and\, of course\, the quintessential Canadian – and Hall of Fame – song\, Sweet City Woman!\nA veritable soundtrack to a whole generation that will ‘carry you home’ … maybe not to Birmingham … but back to a time of tie-dyed  t-shirts and elevator shoes\, 15¢ coffee and homemade apple pie\, dating and dreaming … By the time The Stampeders get to the first chorus of the first song\, everyone will be singing along. \nNo seventies group represented Canada’s musical identity to the world like The Stampeders. A quick look at Canada’s music scene from 1971 until 1976 confirms The Stampeders were truly the country’s international musical ambassadors\, touring more extensively in Canada and overseas than any other Canadian group during that time.  In 1977 the trio: Rich Dodson (lead guitar)\, Kim Berly (drums) and Ronnie King (bass) parted company but reunited\, fittingly at the Calgary Stampede\, 15 years later in 1992. Since then they’ve been recognized by SOCAN for their Lifetime Achievement\, been inducted into the SOCAN Songwriters Hall of Fame on five occasions and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame for their 1971 seminal hit Sweet City Woman. \nIn March 2024\, just before the Ontario leg of this tour\, Ronnie King passed away.  In the final days\, while in  palliative care\, he insisted that his band mates carry on.  Dave  Chabot\, renowned bassist and long time friend of the band\, who was already scheduled to be on the tour to sit in for Ronnie as needed\, was the obvious choice.  Still\, Ronnie  remains a presence at every show\, as Rich and Kim share stories from 50plus years on the road and pay tribute with a retrospective video. \nThe enduring musical legacy of The Stampeders  … One More Time … ‘better catch a noon train\, better get there for a rock ‘n’ rolling good time!’ \n
