2020-03-15 19:30 - 21:30 (America/Winnipeg) | Canadian Museum for Human Rights, 85 Israel Asper Way, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3C 0L5, Canada
The undisputed Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin is synonymous with songs like Chain of Fools, Natural Woman, Freeway of Love, and RESPECT. Her lyrics were a harbinger of modern-day feminism; strong, independent, demanding of equality and freedom, sung with a voice that would accept nothing less. Joining the WJO for this show is a tour-de-force of local talent- Murray Pulver, Marc Arnould, Daniel Roy and Gilles Fournier, known collectively as Ego Spank, and vocalists Jennifer Hanson, Heitha Forsyth and Andrina Turenne.

By Grand Central Station
2020-03-11 - 2020-03-29 | Prairie Theatre Exchange, 393 Portage Ave, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3B 9Z9, Canada
Eight musicians and two dancers bring to life a story of love, seen through the lens of one woman’s experience and poetry. One of Canada’s most revered female poets, Elizabeth Smart’s seminal work inspired musicians Matt Peters and Tom Keenan, of local band Heavy Bell, to adapt the poetic novel into a song cycle with all the joy and despair of love. Now, with dancers Carol-Ann Bohrn & Alexandra Garrido, those songs have been crafted into a dance and theatre performance of eloquence and beauty. Set to hauntingly beautiful music, through movements both literal and abstract representations of the lyrics, the words of Elizabeth Smart resonate with relevance and sensuality.

Black Label Society
2020-03-10 19:30 - 21:30 | Burton Cummings Theatre, 364 Smith Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3B 2H2, Canada
Charismatic beast and consummate showman, Black Label Society bandleader Zakk Wylde puts his massive heart and earnest soul on display with unbridled, unchained, animalistic passion in Black Label Society, whether it’s a crushingly heavy blues-rock barnstormer or a piano-driven ode to a fallen brother.
Each Black Label Society album is another opportunity to top the one before it, but like AC/DC or The Rolling Stones, BLS isn’t here to reinvent the wheel. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. It’s a brand we can trust.rton
