Five Shows Worth Braving the Cold for This Winter
WRITTEN BY: katie gordon & MITCHELL JODREY // THE BOOM AT NOON
Already finished That 90’s Show and are tired of binge watching true-crime documentaries? Here are five shows worth braving the cold for this winter.
Rankin’s Winter Warmers
The Marquee | January 7 - March 18
This winter, Rankin MacInnis is bringing the heat with his band and rotating guests to The Marquee. What we love about this series is each show is an all-ages event that runs 3-6, so you can enjoy a show with the fam and be home in time for supper.
Tickets are $15 + tax per show, or you can get a season pass for a discounted rate.
Big Shiny Tunes
The Marquee | February 3 and 4
A collection of some of Halifax’s finest musicians come together to play your favourite hits from the iconic Big Shiny Tunes compilations.
Read more about Big Shiny Tunes in our interview with the event producers, Stephanie Purcell, Dave Sampson and Mike Farrington Jr.
Tickets are still available for Friday’s show.
Young Hearts: Kim Harris and Stewart Legere
Eastern Front Theatre | February 14
Nothing says love quite like Romeo and Juliet. Treat someone you love to an intimate candlelit cabaret performance at The Eastern Front Theatre. Kim Harris and Stewart Legere will serenade you this Valentine’s Day when they perform music from Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet.
The duo performed the show 10 years ago at The Company House and for its revival, upped its production value and invited special guests.
Tickets are a pay-what-you-can-afford model, with tickets ranging from $25 - $45 for a single ticket, or you can purchase a private table with up to four seats for $200.
Songwriter’s Circle Feat. Elyse Aeryn, Andre Pettipas and Daniel James McFadyen
The Carleton | February 23
For just $15, see three talented artists on one stage. Daniel James McFayden, Elyse Aeryn and Andre Pettipas are stopping by The Carleton to share their stories and songs.
