Given that today is June, I've decided it's no longer to early to start advertising this to every person I know.

Ann & Seamus is a Chamber Opera (opera here meaning "story told entirely through music" not "crazy operatic singing with fat ladies") Performed by Shallaway (formerly known as the Newfoundland Symphony Youth Choir) and written by the brilliant Stephen Hatfield. Some of you may have read the book version by Kevin Major, which it's based on!

It will be:
June 28 & 29, 2007 - 7:30 p.m.
Arts & Culture Centre - St. John's, Newfoundland.
tickets: $25 adult; $20 student
available at the box office or online at www.annandseamus.com

Don't live in Newfoundland? No problem! (assuming that means you live in ontario or Washington DC)
July 2 - National Arts Centre - Ottawa, Ontario
July 5 - Brock University - St. Catherines, Ontario
July 7 & 8 - Harbourfront Centre - Toronto, Ontario
July 11 - Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts - Washington, DC

And it stars yours truly! In the very important role of.. cast member #41.

The cast members themselves actually portray the landscape and props. It's super cool.
