SUMMARY:Hector
DESCRIPTION:HECTOR is\, at its core\, a play about judgement and forgiveness.\nIt is the story of a family\, torn apart by the past\, suddenly brought back together following the death of the family matriarch\, Mrs. Martinoff. \nWill Hector Martinson\, who is challenged by a disability\, survive without her support?  Will her estranged daughter be able to put the past behind her and be the support Hector needs or will the past be too hard for either to face?  As the family history is revealed\, will the helping professionals\, — ever-present in a person with a disability’s life — rush to judge\, or provide support? \nAs more and more of the story is told\, the questions of who needs support\, who needs forgiveness\, and who needs condemnation become jumbled.  Each time we feel secure in our answers\, the play takes a new turn. \nDirected by Clint Hames \nThe play will also be the Guild’s entry in the Theatre BC\, Fraser Valley Zone Festival\, performing on May 24th in Tsawwassen. \nEvent Detail \nDate and Time: May 9\, 2025 – 7:30 PM\nMay 10\, 2025 – 7:30 PM\nMay 11\, 2025 – 2:00 PM \nVenue: Rotary Hall Studio Theatre \nTickets: $30 – Adults\n$27.50 Seniors

SUMMARY:THE STAMPEDERS…. One More Time! (Chilliwack)
DESCRIPTION:A 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!’ \nEvent Detail \nDate and Time: May 7th at 7:30pm \nVenue: HUB International Theatre \nTickets: $96.25
