Last week we had the pleasure of attending opening night of The Hockey Sweater – a Musical at the Segal Centre for Performing Arts. This heart-warming production brings to life Roch Carriere’s short story and is definitely a must see. The show features some uber-talented kiddos and it’s great for all ages. Due to it’s popularity, the show has been extended from November 13 through November 15. For more details and to purchase your tickets click here.

Don’t want to miss this amazing classic!

On Monday night our team took a trip back in time at the Segal Centre’s presentation of BOOM – a show that explores the defining moments of the baby-boom generation. Written, directed and performed by Rick Miller, this incredible one-man show guides audiences through 25 years of history. Miller portrays over a hundred of the generations’ most influential cultural, musical, and political icons. Combining a documentary style performance, storytelling, and interactive visuals, BOOM was an amazing experience! Even though we aren’t boomers ourselves, we were still able to relate to the context of the show, and reflect upon our own experiences, as well as our parents’ and grandparents’ stories of that era. The show runs at the Segal Centre in Montreal, Quebec until April 10th and if you move quickly, there are still a couple of tickets left.

Artist Tony Orrico creates drawings that are part scientific visualization, part performance art. Armed with a writing instrument in each hand, Orrico kneels, lays, or suspends himself over a giant canvas, and starts rhythmically waving his arms back and forth.
